DFC code to pick the parameters password,username from property file in server method

Dear experts,

I would need the assistance to perform the below

1.I have a DFC standlone job(server method) which would no longer use trusted authentication.I have been asked to set the password in a property file or a txt file and then pick it up for authentication

2.I want to modify the DFC program to actually pick the password (encrypted) in a property file and then decrypt it and then login to docbase(by calling getDocbaseSession()) with the decrypted password.

3.I also want to know how the location of this property file would be set in DFC Job (server method).

If anybody can provide the code snippet for this it would be very helpful.

Thanks

Vijay

Reading the file will be via standard java.io methods

Storing an encrypted password will be as simple as using the standard password encrypt utility preovided with the system.

As to location, it can be anywhere the content server can access. I'd guess you would provide the filename as a parameter to the job.

Try placing the properties file in the package and deploy the jar file on method server.

We did this :

static {

Properties _configurator = null;

try {

String str = BpmifConfigSearch.getResourceAsString("5ma_application.properties");

_configurator = new Properties();

ByteArrayInputStream instream = new ByteArrayInputStream(str.getBytes());

_configurator.load(instream);

}

catch (Exception e) {

LoggerHelper.error("ImportFileSecure.construct())-> can not read config file. reason : " + e.getMessage());

LoggerHelper.printStackTrace(e);

}

keyStoreName = _configurator.getProperty(KEYSTORE_NAME);

keyStorePasswd = _configurator.getProperty(KEYSTORE_PASSWD);

}

Path :

C:\Documentum\jboss4.2.0\server\DctmServer_MethodServer\deploy\ServerApps.ear\DmMethods.war\WEB-INF\classes

Usually, keeping the properties files and third party jars under the path \Documentum\dba\java_methods also works, but if it is not working for you, try getting the classpath or check method server log (server.log) for classpath and place the file there and test.

LoggerHelper.warn("GD. " + getClass().getName() + "JAVA CLASSPATH="+System.getProperty("java.class.path"));
