addUser (method)
Adds a new user to the AuthorizedUsers collection.
Syntax
- (void)addUser:(NSString*)user :(NSString*)password :(NSString*)QBConnectionString :(int)authMode;
public func addUser(_ user: String, _ password: String, _ QBConnectionString: String, _ authMode: Int32) throws -> Void
Remarks
Please refer to the AuthorizedUsers collection for more information.
User specifies the user which will be allowed to connect.
Password specifies the password of the user. This is not applicable when AuthMode is set to 1 (amWindows).
QBConnectionString sets the connection properties for the user. See AuthorizedUserQBConnectionString for details.
AuthMode defines how the user will be authenticated. There are two ways that the user may be authorized, against the user list defined in the class, or as a Windows user. From the client side the process of connecting is exactly the same no matter which option you choose. Possible values are:
| 0 (amNormal - default) | The user is authenticated against the user list defined in the class. |
| 1 (amWindows) | The user is authenticated as a Windows user. |
When using the amWindows AuthMode the class will validate the user's credentials with Windows. When calling AddUser the Password parameter should be set to empty string.
