turbine user problem

hi list

I am currently trying to to write userdata to the
turbine_user table
(with torque). It works fine as long as the user dose not
work on its
own data.
for exsample:
if my admin user is trying to write a new firstname or
lastname to his
record in the db, it works as long as the user is loged in.
When the
user logs out and in again, the changes are gone. I am not
shure, but I
think that the TurbineSecurity calss caches the values and
stores them
during logout. So I tryed to use the TurbineSecurity class
to write
changes to the user table, but this class will not except
the
TurbineUser object as argument in the saveUser method and a
cast faild.
Is there a detailed doc to work with TurbineSecurity class
or is there
an other way to do this?

thx 4 help
Mark

Hi Mark,

I have had the same problem.  The main thing is to check if
the user is
updating his own data, in which case you retrieve the user
object from
RunData object, and to store the data in the RunData object
again before
saving:


    public TibetUser updateUser(String userName, String
password, String
password2, String email, ...) {
        TibetUser user;

        // retrieve the user from RunData if the user is
updating his own
info, from db otherwise
        boolean userIsLoggedIn = data.getUser() != null
&&
data.getUser().getName() != null;
        boolean isCurrentUser = userIsLoggedIn &&
data.getUser().getName().equals(userName);
        if (isCurrentUser) {
            user = (TibetUser) data.getUser();
        } else {
            user = getUser(userName);
        }

        // update user properties
        try {
            TurbineSecurity.changePassword(user,
user.getPassword(),
password);
        } catch (...)
        }
        user.setEmail(email);

        // if the current user is updating his own user
object, save the
changes to his session /before/ saving to the database
        if (userIsLoggedIn &&
data.getUser().getName().equals(user.getName())) {
            data.setUser(user);
            data.save();
        } else {
            // todo: if the updated user is logged in while
someone else is
updating the profile, 
            // invalidate that user's session before saving
to avoid having
it being overwritten after the user logs out
        }

        // save to database
        try {
            TurbineSecurity.saveUser(user);
        } catch (UnknownEntityException e) {
		...
        } 
    }


Hope that helps!

/Martin
