Changing a password

This example demonstrates the following ODServer methods:

• initialize
• logoff
• logon
• changePassword
• getPassword
• terminate

This example uses the following runtime parameters:

• New password
• Password
• Port
• Server name
• User Id

Example of changing a password:

import com.ibm.edms.od.*;

public class TcChangePassword
{
    public static void main ( String argv[] )
    {
        ODServer odServer;
        String server, userid, original_password, new_password;

        // If too few parameters, display syntax and get out
        //----------
        if ( argv.length < 5 )
        {
            System.out.println( "usage: java TcChangePassword <server> <port> <userid> <password> <new password>" );
