Lightstreamer .Net Adapter 1.11.0

MetadataProviderAdapter.NotifyUser Method (string, string, IDictionary, string)

Extended version of the User authentication method, called by Lightstreamer Kernel, through the Remote Server, in case the Server has been instructed (through the <use_client_auth> configuration flag) to acquire the client principal from the client TLS/SSL certificate, if available. 

In this default implementation, the base 3-arguments version of the method is invoked, where the clientPrincipal argument is discarded. This also ensures backward compatibility with old adapter classes derived from this one. 

Edition Note: https connections is an optional feature, available depending on Edition and License Type. To know what features are enabled by your license, please see the License tab of the Monitoring Dashboard (by default, available at /dashboard).
