I have been trying to override the code behind the "Finish" button on a custom data source wizard like XMLSelectionWizardPage in eclipse in other to authenticate to a server before continuing. This is necessary to be able to pull xml data.

Michael,

Do they need to only authenticate at design time? If you put this on
the finish button how will it be handled at run time?

Jason,

I have changed the design. Previously, I wanted to add some code to the 'Finish' button at design time to make sure that the Eclipse client authenticate with the server given URL, username and password. But I am not so strict about it anymore as one could have a bad data source. Therefore, using the 'Test Connection' button to verify will be enough at design time. I can then set the login information as custom properties which I can get back in a Connection object that implements the IConnection interface. With this, I can authenticate at run-time.

Thanks for the reply.

Michael.
