Hello,

I have a question regarding to the LDAPExSecurityFilter, which it has been implemented by Urs Beeli, enhancing the functionality of the previous LDAPSecurityFilter, the process of which it is described here.
The thing is that, once that I am logged in without any problem, I would like to be able to retrieve the user and password in the client side of my Scout application, after have past this filter (LDAPExSecurityFilter).

Thank you for your time.

Ferran

You should be able to access the username on ClientSession/ServerSession:

ClientSession.get().getUserId()

The username is kept on Server- and ClientSession as a shared variable. See also:

org.eclipse.scout.rt.server.AbstractServerSession.assignUserId()

If not let me know.

For security reason the password is never shipped to the client. If needed you could manage it the same way as the userId. Take note of security concepts!
