 Hello,

 I've used to do this:

Dim objModule As DotNetNuke.Entities.Modules.ModuleInfo

Dim viewRoles As String = objModule.AuthorizedViewRoles

 

However, AuthorizedViewRoles  was Deprecated in DNN 5.1. All permission checks are done through Permission Collections.

Its implementation is/was:

                '<XmlIgnore()> Public ReadOnly Property AuthorizedViewRoles() As String

                '    Get

                '        If String.IsNullOrEmpty(_AuthorizedViewRoles) Then

                '            If InheritViewPermissions Then

                '                _AuthorizedViewRoles = TabPermissionController.GetTabPermissions(TabID, PortalID).ToString("VIEW")

                '            Else

                '                _AuthorizedViewRoles = ModulePermissions.ToString("VIEW")

                '            End If

                '        End If

                '        Return _AuthorizedViewRoles

                '    End Get

                'End Property

 

My doubt/question is: which would be the right not-obsolete way to get this same information in one step?

Clearly, call  ModulePermissions.ToString("VIEW") is not enough because as this property does, you have also to check for InheritViewPermissions.

 

Many thanks,

Horacio.-

I would take a look at the shared public methods in the ModulePermissionController class - in particular:

Public Shared Function CanViewModule(ByVal objModule As ModuleInfo) As Boolean

and the more flexible

Public Shared Function HasModuleAccess(ByVal AccessLevel As SecurityAccessLevel, _
                                       ByVal permissionKey As String, _
                                       ByVal ModuleConfiguration As ModuleInfo) As Boolean

Thanks, Bill! I'll take a look to these methods.
