PasswordRequired

Object and Type

Object  : FCSession

Type     : Property

Prototype

Public PasswordRequired As Boolean

Description

This property allows you to disable password valdation when logging in using the Login method. By default, this property is set to True, meaning that a valid password must be supplied to the Login method. If this property is set to False, then the login name is validated, but the password is not. 

This property is useful when developing applications that  use their own validation mechanisms, such as an LDAP server or web server.

Example

The following example demonstrates setting and using the PasswordRequired property. The example allows you to login without supplying a valid password.

JavaScript:

  var FCApp;
  var FCSession;
  var strUserName = Request.Form("username").Item;

  //Create a session using the Global FCApp
  FCApp = Application.Contents("FCApp");
  FCSession = FCApp.CreateSession();
  FCSession.PasswordRequired = false;

  //Login as a contact

  try
  {
    FCSession.Login(strUserName,"","contact")
  }
  catch(e)
  {
    Response.Write("<BR><B>Logon Error:</B><BR>");
    Response.Write("<B>" + e.description + "</B><BR>");
  }
