I would like to know how drupal handles the code for the roles in order to verify access to content. This code is valid:

if (in_array('my_role', array_values($user->roles))) {
// some stuffs here.
}

thanks

It is not clear, are you asking a question or providing an example?

Use user_access instead:

Your code would look like this:


if(user_access("my_role"))
{
// some stuff here
}

here is the full doc: http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules--user--user.module/function/use...

did you look at the linked function? There's nothing that checks roles there. user_access checks permissions.

Sorry I write an example:
I have two roles "A" and "B" and a content type (CCK file_field) called "news". The users of the role "A" can see "news", while users of the role of "B" should not have access to "news" and should display a message "you are not authorized to view the content." "News" appears as a node is both as a field of view. How can I do?
thank you very much.

In italian:
scusate scrivo un esempio:
ho due ruoli "A" e "B" e un contenuto di tipo (cck file_field) chiamato "news". Gli utenti del ruolo "A" possono vedere "news", mentre gli utenti del ruolo "B" non devono avere accesso a "news" e devono visualizzare una scritta "non sei autorizzato a vedere il contenuto". "News" viene visualizzato sia come nodo sia come campo di una vista. Come posso fare?
Grazie mille

Try content access module. It has such functionality.

I tried content access module but this does not make me see the content but does not replace the same with the written access denied.
