3.1 Defining The User Login

You can shorten the login time if you predefine the user name, password and domain of the user. The login window of the Site Manager is automatically filled with these data. You can even skip this window completely, so that the user will login immediately.

Note

Note

Not mandatory: By default, the user set in the environment of the computer will be used.

Caution

Caution

Configure in one of the following files:

  • editor.properties

  • editor-startup.xml

The settings of editor.properties will be overwritten by the editor-startup.xml settings.

Predefine login data

editing.properties

In the editor.properties file use the following properties:

  • Enter the name of the user into the login.username property.

  • Enter the password of the user into the login.password property.

  • Enter the domain of the user into the login.domain property.

  • For immediate login enter "true" into the login.immediate property.

editor-startup.xml

In the editor-startup.xml file use the following properties:

  • Enter the name of the user into the attribute loginName of the <Editor> element.

  • Enter the password of the user into the attribute loginPassword of the <Editor> element.

  • Enter the domain of the user into the attribute loginDomain of the <Editor> element.

  • For immediate login enter "true" into the attribute loginImmediate of the <Editor> element.

The <Editor> element has more attributes that can be used. They are shown in the following table:

AttributeDescription
classThis attribute is used to enter the editor class to use. Default is hox.corem.editor.generic.GenericEditor.
loginNameThis attribute is used to enter the default name for login. If no name is entered, the name from the environment is used. You can always change the name during login, it is just a preset. If a login name should be predefined, it must be set in the editor-startup.xml file. If a global editor.xml file is used for all users it might be sensible to set the login name in the editor.properties file.
loginPasswordThis attribute is used to enter the default password for login. If no password is entered, the login name is used. You can always change the password during login, it is just a preset. If a login password should be predefined, it must be set in the editor-startup.xml file. If a global editor.xml file is used for all users it might be sensible to set the login password in the editor.properties file.
loginDomainThis attribute is used to enter the default domain for login. You can always change the domain during login, it is just a preset. If a login domain should be predefined, it must be set in the editor-startup.xml file.
loginImmediateIf this attribute is set to "true", an attempt is made to connect directly to the server with the login data given above. The login window does not appear. The default value is "false".
showCurrentUserIf this attribute is set to "true", the name of the current user of the editor is shown at the top of the window. Default is "false", that is, the user name is not shown.
startupThis attribute defines the Site Manager window to start with. Possible values are "OpenExplorer" "OpenQuery", "OpenWorkflow", "OpenUserManager" which will open the respective window. As default, the Site Manager starts with the explorer window ("normal" user) or with the user manager window ("administrator" user).
startupMode

This attribute defines the start-up mode for administrators. If set to "4.2", the super user with ID "0" always starts with the User Manager window. All other users will start with the window defined using "startup".

If set to "5.0" the super user with ID "0" and all members of the administration group start with the User Manager window. All other users will start with the window defined using "startup". Default setting is "5.0".
