Stores information about a user or group. Some of the fields are specific to users and cannot be used for groups. The Access, Expiration, and PwdChgNow fields are the only fields in this structure that can be modified using the API.
This extended User Info structure is slightly different from the standardESS_USERINFO_T structure used by EssGetUser (see ESS_USERINFO_T, ESS_GROUPINFO_T). This extended structure is used by EssGetUserEx.
The fields are:
typedef struct ESS_USERINFOEX_T { ESS_USERNAME_T Name; ESS_PASSWORD_T Password; ESS_APPNAME_T AppName; ESS_DBNAME_T DbName; ESS_BOOL_T Login; ESS_USHORT_T Type; ESS_ACCESS_T Access; ESS_ACCESS_T MaxAccess; ESS_DATE_T Expiration; ESS_TIME_T LastLogin; ESS_TIME_T DbConnectTime; ESS_USHORT_T FailCount; ESS_LOGINID_T LoginId; ESS_DESC_T Description; ESS_EMAIL_T EMailID; ESS_BOOL_T LockedOut; ESS_BOOL_T PwdChgNow; ESS_PROTOCOL_T protocol; ESS_CONNPARAM_T connparam; } ESS_USERINFOEX_T, *ESS_PUSERINFOEX_T, **ESS_PPUSERINFOEX_T;
