[X++] Short code: name of current user
The old fashioned way to get the name of the current user is to select the record from UserInfo
:
UserInfo userInfo;
select firstOnly name from userInfo
where userInfo.id == curUserId();
Instead of selecting the table UserInfo
, the application has a neat class for such information:
xUserInfo::find().name;
The find method returns a record of type UserInfo and then you can access its fields easily.
