Example
Summary
VERIFYUSER has three different functions. It is used to control logons, to verify that a
user exists, and to return user-default information. Logon control and user verification
is also available through the USER_AUTHENTICATE_ procedure. User-default
information is also available through USER_GETINFO_ without the security restrictions
and password validation required by VERIFYUSER.
Syntax for C Programmers
•
The function value returned by VERIFYUSER, which indicates the condition code,
can be interpreted by
_status_lt(), _status_eq(), or _status_gt()
(defined in the file
tal.h).
Syntax for TAL Programmers
