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;  
}

Remarks

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