Array, Property Setters, and Using ##class(Security.Users).Modify... to Disable a User Account from the Terminal

Question

James Hipp · Aug 7, 2019

Hello,

I am wondering the best way to disable a user account using this class in Cache (Security.Users).

Example User Account = jhipp

Currently is Enabled

I know that we can use the auto-generated EnabledGetStored method, for example:

%SYS> w ##class(Security.Users).EnabledGetStored("jhipp")
1

There is not an auto-generated method to set this property, right?

I can modify this property with the Modify function, but I have to build a temp array with one value etc...

%SYS> s temp("Enabled")=0

%SYS> zw temp

temp("Enabled")=0

%SYS> w ##class(Security.Users).Modify("jhipp", .temp)

Is there an easier way to do this, such as an auto-generated setter function or a shortcut for the array similar to this?

%SYS> w ##class(Security.Users).Modify("jhipp", "Enabled" = 0)

Just wanted to verify that there was not an easier way.

Thanks,

James
