How to test if a user can start a process start

Question

I have an IUSER Object and IProcessStart, how can i test, if user is able to start this process start ?

(i have no session of user, so i can't test it like ivy.session.getStartableProcessStarts() )

Accepted Answer

A IProcessStart may be up casted to a IStartElement. The IStartElement has a getActivator() method where the Role or User that is allowed to start the process is returned.

Use the following code to check if a user can start the process:

import ch.ivyteam.ivy.security.IUser;
import ch.ivyteam.ivy.workflow.IProcessStart;
import ch.ivyteam.ivy.workflow.IStartElement;
IProcessStart processStart;
IUser user = ivy.session.getSessionUser();

if (processStart instanceof IStartElement)
{
    IStartElement startElement = processStart as IStartElement;

    // with user
    startElement.getActivator().isMember(user.getUserToken(), false);

    // with session
    startElement.getActivator().isMember(ivy.session, false);
}
