Regd Accessing Custom UME Attribute

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am new to portal development. I have a requirement to access a custom ume attribute in my portal masthead.

I used the IUser,IUserContext, IPortalComponentContext and IPortalComponentProfile Interface for this but no joy. For whatever attribute I access it returns only null either it be standard or custom ume attribute.

To get an Custom UME attribute specific to a logged in user what is the method i should use ??

What is the simplest method by which I can get and the set this attribute in my portal masthead par file.

All suggestions are highly appreciated.

Note: I referred the Forum for similar threads and cannot find a one matching my requirement, either it goes as reading UME attribute in Webdypro or some thing else.

Hi All,

Got the required output

The code line to be used is

IUserMaint userMaint = (IUserMaint)userFact.getMutableUser(username.getUniqueID());

Thanks for all your support.

Hi Arun,

Thanks for your reply.

Now I am able to fetch my Custom attribute. Now I tried to set the attribute with a value.

The problem i face here is I am not able to get an instance of logged in user in my userMaint object.

The coding goes like this

IUserMaint userMaint = ???? ;

boolean a = userMaint.setAttribute("com.sap.security.core.usermanagement","xxx",yyyy);

How should i bring in the current user data in userMaint object so that I will set the attribute for the user.

Aniticipating your help at the earliest.

Thanks in Advance
