Invoke
the appropriate user or group operations.
To find a user or
group, invoke one of the DirectoryManagerServiceService object’s
methods for finding principals (since a principal can be a user
or a group). In the example below, the findPrincipalsWithFilter method
is called using a search filter (a PrincipalSearchFilter object).
When using a PrincipalSearchFilter object, local
principals are only returned if the isLocal property
is set to true. This behavior is different than
what would occur with the Java API.
Remarque : If the
maximum number of results is not specified in the search filter (through
the
PrincipalSearchFilter.resultsMax field), a
maximum of 1000 results will be returned. This is different behavior
than what occurs using the Java API, in which 10 results is the
default maximum. Also, the search methods such as
findGroupMembers will
not yield any results unless the maximum number of results is specified
in the search filter (for example, through the
GroupMembershipSearchFilter.resultsMax field).
This applies to all search filters that inherit from the
GenericSearchFilter class.
For more information, see
LiveCycle API Reference.
Since
the return value in this case is an object[] containing Principal objects,
iterate through the result and cast the Principal objects
to either User or Group objects.
Using
the resultant User or Group object
(which both inherit from the Principal interface),
retrieve the information you need in your workflows. For example,
the domain name and canonical name values, in combination, uniquely
identify a principal. These are retrieved by invoking the Principal object’s domainName and canonicalName fields,
respectively.
To delete a local user, invoke the DirectoryManagerServiceService object’s deleteLocalUser method
and pass the user’s identifier.
To delete a local group, invoke
the DirectoryManagerServiceService object’s deleteLocalGroup method
and pass the group’s identifier.
