Prism 7 Problems & Solutions

Loading Modules Based on User Roles

Brian Lagunas

This course will cover how to add authorization to Prism in order for the application to load modules based on the logged in user roles.

Most desktop WPF Prism applications have built-in security and assigns roles to users. These roles are used to instruct the application about which aspects or features a user can access. This course will address a major concern with Prism developers regarding security and answer the question, "How do I load modules based on user roles?"
