_msgSender() returns the same address as msg.sender

Smart Contracts

hey!

In my app I have such flow:

User -> contract A -> contract B

On contract B I'd like to get address of User (the original caller).
I've tested both _msgSender() and msg.sender and both return the same value = contract A address.

Is there other safe way to achieve what I'm looking for with _msgSender() or do I have to use tx.origin?

You can use delegate call

3

You have to use tx.origin

4

And of course - in the words of Vitalik himself - never use tx.origin.
