Get user groups and username

[fstarfeld]

I work with ActionScript 3 and LiveCycle workspace 8.2.  I need to read the user name (display name) for a user which has logged in to workspace and additionally I want to retrieve the users group names.

With help of the following code I am able to get a user object (class lc.domain.user) and display the user information, but I'm not able to read the user name and groups.

                var session : SessionMap = SessionMap( Application.application.session );
                var sessionManager : ISessionManager = ISessionManager( session.getObject( "lc.core.ISessionManager" ) );

                var user:User = sessionManager.authenticatedUser;

                Alert.show( ObjectUtil.toString( user) );

According to the API the lc.domain.user class has a public property displayName and groups, but the Compiler does not recognize these properties and there are no getter or setter methods.

Any ideas?

I am not sure about ActionScript APIs.

If you could consider an alternet way, you could try this.

Create a short lived process with a LDAP search component. Search the user info in LDAP and return the memberOf attribute.

This short-lived process can be invoked from PDF/Flex form through SOAP.
