Interface User

    • Method Detail

      • getPassword

        String getPassword()
        Returns the user's password. This method should not be used by the application directly, because it's meaning depends upon the implementation of UserManager that manages this particular user object. Some implementations will use this attribute for storing a password encrypted in some way, other will not use it at all, when user entered password is presented to some external authority (like NT domain controller) to validate it. See also UserManager.authenticate(User,String) .
        Returns:
        A String with the password for the user.
