Hello,
I have a basic question on how to access the logged in user for later
use in updates. After authenticating a user I enter him into the
session, but when I later try to retrieve this user in another page, it
fails(returns null).
So in my main page I record the user as follows:
if (_password.equals(password)) {
EOEnterpriseObject user =
EOUtilities.objectMatchingKeyAndValue(session().defaultEditingContext(),
"User", "name", username);
// set the session.user
session().takeValueForKey(user, "user");
And on another page to add a new transaction which needs the user
relation attribute(as a foreign key):
EOEnterpriseObject user = (EOEnterpriseObject)
valueForKeyPath("session.user"); // user evals to null???
purchase.addObjectToBothSidesOfRelationshipWithKey(user, "user");
The save fails because user is a required attribute. And I'm not sure if
I am not properly storing the user in the session, or not properly
retrieving the user from the session.
Can anyone see what I am doing wrong or suggest another approach?
TIA
