I'm getting the wrong username... from componentRequest.getUser();

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am having an iView in top of all my web pages, and it was suppose to show the current loggded in username.

But it doesn't always show the correct name. Some times it shows a username, that I was logged in whith earlier.

The implementation is done like this:

IUserContext currentUser = componentRequest.getUser();
String user = currentUser.getLogonUid();

Hi Flemming,

your code looks good to me. Your problem sounds more like a caching issue actually. Make sure that your iView is not cached.

Hope this helps,

Hi Esther,

thanks, that seems to be exactly the problem.

I solved it now. The problem was that the CachingLevel was set to "Shared" which means that the iView is shared among users, and therefore cached.

I changed the CachingLevel to "User" so that it is specific for each user, and therefore not cached among users. I changed the variable in Portalapp.xml for the component that the iView is based upon.

Regards and thanks.

hi

good

Check this code.

Form myForm = this.getForm();

as well as sending the response to UWL.jsp.

Also I'm not sure if this will work:

UWLContext uwlContext = getUserContext(request);

I would prefer this:

UWLContext uwlContext = new UWLContext();

IUser user = componentRequest.getUser();

uwlContext.setUser(user);
