ValidateLogin Method

Description

Validates the Login

Syntax

Visual Basic
Public Sub ValidateLogin( _ ByVal bstrUserName As String, _ ByVal bstrPassword As String, _ ByVal bstrGroup As String, _ ByVal bstrUserRole As String, _ ByVal bstrDBUrl As String _ )

Parameters

bstrUserName: Specifies the UserName of the user to authenticate.
bstrPassword: Specifies the password of the user to authenticate.
bstrGroup: Specifies the group to which the user belongs. The default group is "dba".
bstrUserRole: Specifies the Role of the User in InsightXT.
bstrDBUrl: Specifies the server name to which the user wants to connect.

Remarks

The API actually uses to log in to the InsightXT. The behavior of the authentication process depends on the display_alerts flag. If the display_alerts flag is ON then user will see the Auto-Login dialog (for the login purpose) where he can do AutoLogin or he can directly type in his UserName and password to authenticate him. If the user provides the wrong information then the value of the hr will return as S_FALSE.
If the value of the flag is OFF, then Validatelogin () method will use the username/password that is supplied, to login into InsightXT. But this time, no login dialog will be shown and the login will be done silently.
