How to access roles through API

Hi,

I would recommend you to do this through a SmartObject using the URM(UserRoleManager) ServiceObject, but you could also do this through the URM API as described below.

You need to reference the following assemblies :

• 
  
• SourceCode.Security.UserRoleManager.Client
  
• SourceCode.HostServerInterfaces which contains the IUsers collection and IUser
  
• SourceCode.HostClientAPI

The following is a very simple example on how to use the API:

            UserRoleManagerServer urm = new UserRoleManagerServer();
            urm.Connection = urm.CreateConnection();
            //To build up the connection string.
            SourceCode.Hosting.Client.BaseAPI.SCConnectionStringBuilder csb = new SourceCode.Hosting.Client.BaseAPI.SCConnectionStringBuilder();
            csb.Host = "blackpearl";
            csb.Integrated = true;
            csb.IsPrimaryLogin = true;
            csb.Port = 5555;
            //Open the connection using the constr built
            urm.Connection.Open(csb.ToString());
            //Get a collection of users belonging to a Role
            SourceCode.Hosting.Server.Interfaces.IUserCollection users = urm.ResolveQueue("MyRole");
            //...Rest of code here

Hope this helps.
