Unable to access CreateAsync in User Manager

Question

I'm trying to use the new

Asp.Net Identity

system. I've searched this in asp.net site and able to find a tutorial here.

I've created

Register

action and appropriate view for it. But Unable to code it further as I'm struck using

User Manager

in Identity System.

To be precise, It's here.

var result = await UserManager.CreateAsync(user, register.Password);

The

UserManager

class throws an exception

Using the generic type 'Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.UserManager<TUser,TKey>' requires 2 type arguments

My question is why did the author of the tutorial did not get any sort of exceptions ? Am I missing any dependencies ?

It seems like the documentation is not so perfect in asp.net site as well.

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

var result = await UserManager.CreateAsync(user, register.Password);

The UserManager in the above statement is not a Class as I've expected. Its a property of type UserManager<ApplicationUser>.

So, at the beginning just declared a property as

public UserManager<ApplicationUser> UserManager { get; private set; }

And now I can use the Async version for creating users. The following statement works.

var result = await UserManager.CreateAsync(user, register.Password);
