RCP plugins session management? [message #527283]

Hi folks!

I was looking for info about session management in RCP applications but found no clue on how to do this in a simple way.

What I need is to store the user/pass credentials once I am logged in my application so I can:

1. Read those credentials in any View of my application if needed.
2. Configure a session timeout and control when the session expires so the application automatically do a logout fo the user for security reasons.

Any idea on this? Does RCP comes with session management mechanisms to implement such things?

Thanks a lot,

Mh

Hi,

AFAIK eclipse has no session management. Use JAAS to that.

Hello Kai,

Thanks for the repsonse but I have checked that the JAAS package is depreceted, so I am not sure if is a good option to include this in my app:

http://java.sun.com/products/archive/jaas/

Is this the only option for session management in RCP?

JAAS isn't really deprecated. It has been moved into the Java SE. It is
not longer a seperated Product, it is now part of the java runtime.
