List members of a group

Bax_Ruud

L.s.In C# I used the ListMembers function on a group to get all members. Now I have a LLValue object filled with the groupmembers but how can I get the name of every individual member in that group !?Regards,Ruud

Just use the ListMembers function again.

Message from Carsten Kulms via eLinkPlease have a look at the "Value API" part of the LAPI documentation. Especially the section about "Content Enumeration" as the output of theListMembers function is a RecArray.You may also like to have a look at the following LAPI discussion entry-- there you find attached a Java example for usage of ListMembers.

Christopher,I think you misunderstood my question. I don't want to know the members of sub-groups. I want to know who is in this group. How can I get the memberinfo out of the LLValue object I get when using ListMembers.In plain English:I want to know the names of the users in a specific group.Regards,Ruud

Ruud,

Here is the solution to one of theexercises my students do in the Introduction to LAPI training course. It listsALL groups and ALL users in each group in a hierarchy. I’m sure you canmodify it to suit.

Best regards,

Howard

Your question is a bit vague but I am going to interpret "individual member" to not mean each immediate member of the group, which will be a collection of users and groups, but rather to mean "every user who is a member of this group either directly or by inheritance".You are probably a bit confused as to what ListMembers does. The ListMembers function will populate the supplied LLValue with a list of each user or group that is an immediate member of that group. To obtain a list of every user who is a member of the group either directly or via inheritance, you need to recurse the group members.For an example of how to do this, see the attached Java source file. Very little null/error checking is done and is meant only as an example of how to obtain a distinct list of users who are a member of a group.Note that when you write your implementation, you should account for a user being a member of multiple groups. The Set class in Java takes care of this in my example because the Set.add(Object) method will ignore duplicates.Note also that this sample assumes group members are limited to users of type LAPI_DOCUMENTS.GROUP and LAPI_DOCUMENTS.USERS.
