        userIdentity:IIdentity byref * 
        userId:IntPtr byref -> unit 
function GetUserInfo(
    userIdentity : IIdentity, 
    userId : IntPtr
)

Parameters

  • userIdentity
    Type: System.Security.Principal.IIdentity%
    [out] The identity of the current user. The value of IIdentity may appear in a user interface and should be human readable.
  • userId
    Type: System.IntPtr%
    [out] A user account token. This token is primarily used by the report server as a handle to a Windows account in support of credential management for Windows Authentication.

Remarks

The report server calls the GetUserInfo method for each request to retrieve the current user identity.

Examples

The following example code implements the GetUserInfo method by returning the principal identity of the current HTTP request.

Public Sub GetUserInfo(ByRef userIdentity As IIdentity, ByRef userId As IntPtr)
   ' If the current user identity is not null,
   ' set the userIdentity parameter to that of the current user 
   If Not (HttpContext.Current Is Nothing) And Not (HttpContext.Current.User Is Nothing) Then
      userIdentity = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity
   Else
      userIdentity = Nothing
   End If 
   ' initialize a pointer to the current user id to zero
   userId = IntPtr.Zero
End Sub 'GetUserInfo
public void GetUserInfo(out IIdentity userIdentity, out IntPtr userId)
{
   // If the current user identity is not null,
   // set the userIdentity parameter to that of the current user 
   if (HttpContext.Current != null
       && HttpContext.Current.User != null)
   {
       userIdentity = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity;
   }
   else
      userIdentity = null;

   // initialize a pointer to the current user id to zero
   userId = IntPtr.Zero;
}
