Creating profile entry value setters

You can assign the values for profile entries at generation time. Use a Java class that implements one of the following interfaces.

 

Implementing the ProfileUpdateValue2 interface

The following code example sets a profile entry value to the user name associated with the request. 

import com.bowstreet.webapp.ModelInstanceCreator; import com.bowstreet.profiles.*; import javax.servlet.http.*; import java.util.Map;

public class SampleTestProfileUpdateValue implements ProfileUpdateValue2

  public void updateProfileValues(HttpServletRequest request, Profile profile,
                      String profileSetName, String modelName,
                      String explicitProfile, ModelInstanceCreator modelInstanceCreator)
  {
    // Get the value for the "UserName" and replace it with the current users name.
    ProfileValue profileValue = profile.getValue("UserName");

    if(profileValue != null && request != null)
    {
        // assume user is authenticated
        String strUserName = request.getUserPrincipal().getName();

        // now replace it
        profileValue.setData(strUserName);
    }
  }
}
