Hello All:
I'm trying to execute a RFC during the afterInit() function of my custom portal service. I've gotten the
call to work properly in an AbstractPortalComponent. However my problem is that when I put it in a service,
I don't have access to the request object and therefore I don't have an authenticated user for the
ConnectionProperties constructor.
IConnection con = null;
try {
Object tempCon = PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources().getService(IConnectorService.KEY);
IConnectorGatewayService cgService = (IConnectorGatewayService) tempCon;
ConnectionProperties prop = new ConnectionProperties(local,user);
con = cgService.getConnection(connectionString, prop);
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace(System.err);
}
In the portal Service, I create my own IUser object:
IUserFactory userFactory = UMFactory.getUserFactory();
IUser user = userFactory.getUserByLogonID("myuserid");
and pass that user to the ConnectionProperties Constructor, but the getConnection() fails. Is there
some service user I can use? Or is there a way that I can force the IUser object in the service to be
authenticated (I would know the password).
Thanks
