Declaration
public bool IsAuthenticated { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.Boolean

Name

Rights

Returns data bag that contains user rights. This is a framework-only internal property which should not be used by application developers. This bag may get populated fully-or-partially by ISecurityManager implementation. Use User[permission] indexer or Application.SecurityManager.Authorize() to obtain AccessLevel

Declaration
public Rights Rights { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
Rights

Status

Declaration
public UserStatus Status { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
UserStatus

StatusTimeStampUTC

Captures timestamp when this user was set to current status (created/set rights) Security managers may elect to refetch user rights after some period

Declaration
public DateTime StatusTimeStampUTC { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.DateTime

Methods

___update_status(UserStatus, String, String, Rights, DateTime)

Framework-internal. Do not call

Declaration
public void ___update_status(UserStatus status, string name, string descr, Rights rights, DateTime utcNow)
Parameters
Type Name Description
UserStatus status
System.String name
System.String descr
Rights rights
System.DateTime utcNow

Invalidate()

Makes user invalid

Declaration
public void Invalidate()

IsInRole(String)

Determines whether the current principal belongs to the specified role. This method implements IPrincipal and has little application in Azos framework context as Azos permissions are more granular than just boolean. This method really checks user kind (User/Admin/Sys). Confusion comes from the fact that what Microsoft calls role really is just a single named permission - a role is a named permission set in Azos.

Declaration
public bool IsInRole(string role)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.String role
Returns
Type Description
System.Boolean

ToString()

Declaration
public override string ToString()
Returns
Type Description
System.String
Overrides
System.Object.ToString()

Implements

System.Security.Principal.IIdentity
System.Security.Principal.IPrincipal
