Validate current login user password with Web Dynpro App

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am trying to create a WD to display some personal information for the current login user, I would like to validate the password like the ESS Personal Information module.

I understand this should be a common question, but search for a few with no luck....

Thanks in advance

Regards

Bill

Hello Bill,

You can check the User name and password by using the UME API's.

Get the IUser object based on the User name

and get the IUSer Account Refer to the following JAVA DOC and we have a method called

checkPasswordExtended(String pass)
