How to use IUserfactory in Webdynpro?

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I need to develop a report fetching some data from the UME in Portals

I am suppose to use the method IUserfactory.getUniqueIDs to fetch all the users in the User Management Engine.

But when I place this methode in wdinit() for a view controller I get a parsing issue - obviously It must not be able to search for the API . So how should I go about doing the same.

Best Regards,

Roby...

Robert,

Have you added the com.sap.security.api.iuser jar file in your project.

Else you have to import the required jar files manually in "java build path" of the project.

Right click project, open properties, open java build path, click on libraries, click on add external jars, in the eclipse folder, search for the iuser jar and add the jar. click ok and then rebuild your project.

Which version of NWDS you are using?

You should get the following tabs when you click on Java Build Path: Source, Projects, Libraries & Order and Export.

Are you doing a right click on your project in NWDS???

Rob,

You will need to add the following jars com.sap.security.api.jar & com.sap.security.api.perm.jar and you can find them on following location on you hard drive:-

<Path where you have installed IDE for eg: C:\Program Files\IDE>\IDE70\eclipse\plugins\com.sap.tc.ap_2.0.0\comp\SAP-JEE\DCs\sap.com\com.sap.security.api.sda\_comp\gen\default\public\default\lib\java

Hi,

Right click project, open properties, open java build path

Click on ADD Variable

Select WD Runtime--> Click Extend

Select com.sap.security.api.jar

Click OK

Now come to your implementaion page and open context menu and select organize imports.

Hi AyyapaRaj,

I have an issue - when I write this statement

ISearchResult irsch = IUserFactory.getUniqueIDs() ;

I get an error saying that getUniqueIDs() is not static.

So when I try to instantiate IUserFactory I get an error saying it cannot be intantiated.

Best Regards,

Roby..

Try this

IUserFactory userFactory = UMFactory.getUserFactory();

try

{

ISearchResult searchResult = userFactory.getUniqueIDs();

}

catch (UMException e)

{

// TODO: handle exception

}

Hi Chintan,

I created a simple Java project and created a simple Java Class with the following code

public class NumberofUsers {

public static void main (String[] args) {

IUserFactory userFactory = UMFactory.getUserFactory();

try

{

ISearchResult isearchresult = userFactory.getUniqueIDs();

System.out.println(isearchresult);

}

catch ( Exception e )

{

}

}

I am gettting the following error when I run the program

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sap/tc/logging/Location

at com.sap.security.api.UMFactory.<clinit>(UMFactory.java:178)

at NumberofUsers.main(NumberofUsers.java:21)

Exception in thread "main"
