IMetabaseAuthenticationPolicy.AuthenticationType

Fore Syntax

AuthenticationType: MetabaseAuthenticationType;

Fore.NET Syntax

AuthenticationType: MetabaseAuthenticationType;

Description

The AuthenticationType property returns the way of authentication used in repository.

Comments

The property is outdated, use IMetabasePolicy.CheckUserPassword.

Fore Example

To execute the example add a link to the Metabase system assembly.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    MB: IMetabase;
    MS: IMetabaseSecurity;
    Policy: IMetabasePolicy;
    AP: IMetabaseAuthenticationPolicy;
    MAT: MetabaseAuthenticationType;
Begin
    MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
    MS := MB.Security;
    Policy := MS.Policy;
    AP := Policy.AuthenticationPolicy;
    MAT := AP.AuthenticationType;
    If MAT=MetabaseAuthenticationType.Unknown Then
        Debug.WriteLine("Unknown");
    End If;
    If MAT=MetabaseAuthenticationType.External Then
        Debug.WriteLine("External");
    End If;
    If mat=MetabaseAuthenticationType.Mixed Then
        Debug.WriteLine("Mixed");
    End If;
End Sub UserProc;

After executing this example the authentication in use of the current repository is displayed into console window.

Fore.NET Example

The specified procedure is an entry point for the .NET assembly.

Public Shared Sub Main(Params: StartParams);
Var
    MB: IMetabase;
    MS: IMetabaseSecurity;
    Policy: IMetabasePolicy;
    AP: IMetabaseAuthenticationPolicy;
    MAT: MetabaseAuthenticationType;
Begin
    MB := Params.Metabase;
    MS := MB.Security;
    Policy := MS.Policy;
    AP := Policy.AuthenticationPolicy;
    MAT := AP.AuthenticationType;
    If MAT=MetabaseAuthenticationType.meautyUnknown Then
        System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Unknown");
    End If;
    If MAT=MetabaseAuthenticationType.meautyExternal Then
        System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("External");
    End If;
    If mat=MetabaseAuthenticationType.meautyMixed Then
        System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Mixed");
    End If;
End Sub;

After executing this example the authentication in use of the current repository is displayed into console window.
