Remarks

This attribute is used by the AuthenticationBase<T> to determine how it should read from or write to the ASP.NET profile that backs the data. If a property with the same name exists in the profile, you do not need to use this attribute. If a property is not in the profile, you should set the IsExcluded property to true. If a property has a different name than the profile value that backs it, you should set the Alias property to the name of the backing value in the profile. The attribute can be used with user entities extending UserBase.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
