IAuthenticationProviderAuthenticate Method (String, String, NameValueCollection, Int64)

The implementing class should authenticate the user, create and populate a UserContext object adding UserProfiles items to its Profiles collection when an item in the profileRoles collection is supported for this user. If the authentication fails, the implementing class can return a null UserContext object or throw a custom exception. Note that you can use BuildProfileRolesCollection(IAppContext) to get the full set of available roles for the current application.
