You mean something like ...
my $foo = $c->find_user({ username => "some_other_user" }, "my_realm");
$c->log->info(">> " . $c->check_user_roles($foo, qw/Admin/));
?
This gives me nearly the same output as before - i.e.:
[debug] Role denied:
Catalyst::Authentication::Store::DBIx::Class::User=HASH(0x9abd318), Admin
[info] >>
I guess I am misundestanding something. Any hints?
