RE: [Zope] Getting a specific user role
That did the trick. Someday I'm going to get the hang of this stuff. Thanks, Jason. -=Brad=- -----Original Message----- From: Jason Spisak To: Mabe, Brad Cc: 'zope@zope.org' Sent: 6/8/00 7:48 PM Subject: Re: [Zope] Getting a specific user role Mabe, Brad writes:
Forgive me if this has been covered before.
There's no real great documentation on using the security API, and it's changing a bit anyway.
I am implementing a login/security scheme through the use of GUF and
SQL
methods. My user and role information is kept in a SQL database and a user can have more than one role assigned to him/her.
What I would like to do is check if a specific role has been assigned to the current user, and then display some additional menu items if that role has been assigned. I haven't been able to figure out how to get and check the roles that have been assigned to the current user.
As usual, any help will be greatly appreciated.
