Examples

Example 1

The following example determines whether security checking is enabled and, if it is, checks whether the direct caller is in the Manager role before completing the call:

TransactionServer ts

integer li_rc

string str_role = "Admin"

li_rc = GetContextService( "TransactionServer",  &

     ts )

// Find out if security is enabled.

IF ts.IsSecurityEnabled() THEN

       // Find out if the caller is in the role.

    IF NOT ts.IsCallerInRole(str_role) THEN

        // do not complete call

    ELSE

    // execute call normally

    END IF

ELSE

    // security is not enabled

    // do not complete call

END IF
