Overview of Methods
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

\\nn\\t3::BackendUser()->isLoggedIn();
""""""""""""""""

Prüft whether a BE user is logged in.
Example: Show certain content in the frontend only if the user is logged in in the backend.
Früher: ``$GLOBALS['TSFE']->beUserLogin``

.. code-block:: php

	\nn\t3::BackendUser()->isLoggedIn();

| ``@return bool``

\\nn\\t3::BackendUser()->isAdmin();
""""""""""""""""

Prüft whether the BE user is an admin.
Earlier: ``$GLOBALS['TSFE']->beUserLogin``

.. code-block:: php

	\nn\t3::BackendUser()->isAdmin();

| ``@return bool``

\\nn\\t3::BackendUser()->start();
""""""""""""""""

Start (fake) backend user.
Solves the problem that, for example, from the scheduler certain functions
like ``log()`` are not possible if there is no active BE user.
