I'm trying to get a list of all the authorized users within a certain Role so I'm using DotNetNuke.Security.Roles.RoleController.GetUsersByRolName(portalId, "someRole") and without fail it returns all the users in that role AND shows them all as authorized users even though they are not authorized.  I have tried nulling the Membership (which throws an exception), tried reloading the membership by calling DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.UserController.GetUserMembership(ref userInfo) and it still shows them as authorized.  What's up here?  Alternative code I should use to retrieve this list?

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.  I *could* load up the entire membership list using the UserController.GetUsers(portalId, true) and then iterate those to get the users in the role I want but that isn't too attractive for performance.

but I can retrive the data what I need as follows:

 Private Sub BindEditors()
            dropEditorList.Items.Clear()
            Dim ctlRole As RoleController = New RoleController
            Dim editorsList As ArrayList = ctlRole.GetUsersByRoleName(PortalId, "Editor")
            dropEditorList.DataTextField = "DisplayName"
            dropEditorList.DataValueField = "UserID"
            dropEditorList.DataSource = editorsList
            dropEditorList.DataBind()
End Sub

i just know the methods "GetUsersInRole"  was <Obsolete("This function has been replaced by GetUserRolesByRoleName")>
