Service authority Flexberry Rights (CheckingLibrary)

Сервис powers Flexberry Rights is an alternative service authority, designed to meet the increasing demands. The main purpose of the service is to provide mediated access to databases (protecting the database from unwanted changes).

compatibility Issues

To ensure the compatibility of applications with the new system of authority, the existing client-server architecture of the authorization check is left.

Ispolzuyutsya and RightManager, and AzManBridge (redirects calls to AzMan and CheckingLibrary).

AzManBridgeService supports multiple applications at the same time, it is possible to use one server to check permissions for a set of different applications.

Modes Flexberry Rights

There are several options RightManager:

AzMan - Autorization Manager (older technology, not recommended for new projects)
SimpleCheck - Check the similarity Autorization Manager, only used CheckingLibrary.
SessionCheck - Check with use of the session mechanism.

SessionCheck

The principle of operation in this case differs from the standard fact that in addition to information about the user for which you are requesting verification of credentials, [RightManager) transmits another session key that is checked on the server side. Thus, it is mandatory the verification of login and password prior to obtaining rights information of a user.

The session key is issued to the client only in case of successful verification of login and password of the user.

On the server side sets the time of inactivity of the session, after which the session key is removed from the list of active keys. If [RightManager) requesting authority with the key of the expired session, the server he will say no and ask again to operation of logging into the system. [RightManager) throw event NeedLogIn. The programmer must be sure to subscribe to this event and perform the operation:

        /// <summary> 
        /// To login and get the session key (the output happens automatically when you call this function) 
        /// </summary> 
        /// <param name="login">login</param> 
        /// <param name="domain">domain</param> 
        /// <param name="pwd">password</param> 
        /// <param name="name">the name of the user (for synchronization)</param> 
        /// <returns>the success of the operation</returns> 
        public static OperationResult LogInAndGetNewSessionKey(string login, string domain, string pwd, out string name)

For example, you can use [UsingSimpleLoginForm#SimpleLoginformexample

standard form login) (Windows applications).

the Job name of the application for authorization check

In order for a single service authority could serve several applications, it is necessary to obtain information about what the app sends it a request. By default, the application name is taken the name of the executable without extension. Programmers have the ability through configuration file to replace this value by another.

web

The configuration file needs to specify the application name in block unity:

In the configuration file set: AppNameForAzMan or taken

_securityApplicationName = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()[0));

Also have the ability to programmatically set the name of the application using RightManager.SecurityApplicationName.
