User information: CSUser.getProperties

Hi there, I would like to store Full Name in formation in TeamSite. Is there a way of doing this with the Java API. I noticed that the CSUser object has a properties function. Is it possible to store name information in this field?

Thanks,

Brian

What version of TeamSite is this and what property are you trying to set/access here?

bturns

This is TS 6.5
Solaris 9

I have found that the CSUser object has the ability to store properties. I was able to set a name/value pair.

name=First Name
value=John

name=Last Name
value=Doe

Apparently this information is stored in the entities database. I would like to be able to call an individuals real name based on their userid. I am considering using the CSUser class to store the real name information.

Any thoughts?

This functionality for display name was added in TeamSite 6.7, but don't believe that it is available in 6.5. I also don't think you can add additional information to the entities database, as it is not exposed in the CS SDK.
