Obtaining a local copy of an object

Edit online

To obtain a local copy of an administration object, use the constructor for the Java™ class that represents the administration object.

For example, to get a copy of the PDUser object representing a particular Verify Identity Access user, you would use the PDUser constructor as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1. Getting a local copy of a PDUser object

/*------------------------------------------------------------------
* Obtain a user using the PDUser constructor.
*------------------------------------------------------------------
*/

// Set up all of the user's attributes
String name = "Zachary Wommbat";
String firstName = "Zachary";
String lastName = "Wommbat";
String rgyName = "cn=" + name + "," + rgySuffix;
PDRgyUserName pdRgyUserName =
new PDRgyUserName(rgyName, firstName, lastName);
messages.clear()

PDUser user = new PDUser(mySecurityContext,
pdRgyUserName,
messages);

After obtaining a local copy of the administration object, use the instance methods on the object to retrieve or set data associated with the object.
