   public static void Main() {
      // ... 
      MySolutionWindowsFormsApplication application = new MySolutionWindowsFormsApplication();
      application.Security = new MySecurityStrategy<User, Role>(new MyAuthenticationStrategy<User, 
         AuthenticationStandardLogonParameters>())
      // ... 
      application.Setup();
      application.Start();
      // ... 
   }
}
