Poco::OSP::Auth

class AuthAdminService

Library: OSP
Package: Auth
Header: Poco/OSP/Auth/AuthAdminService.h

Description

This service interface extends the basic AuthService interface with methods for administrating users, roles and their permissions.

Users can have assigned permissions and roles. Roles have assigned permissions as well. The effective permissions of a user are his directly assigned permissions plus the permissions assigned through the roles has has been assigned. Use of roles is thus optional.

Each user can have an arbitrary number of attributes.
