Background documentationUsing the InitialContextFactory Class to Access the UCD Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

You use the com.sapportals.portal.pcd.gl.ucd.UcdInitialContextFactory class to create the InitialContext in the UCD. More information about this class: http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/

The initial context points to a specific user folder in the UCD. If the user folder does not exist, it is created.

The following constant is defined in the class com.sapportals.portal.pcd.gl.IPcdContext:

public static final String UCD_INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY = "com.sapportals.portal.pcd.gl.ucd.UcdInitialContextFactory";

Caution Caution

To access the UCD, you must provide the user principal ID as the SECURITY_PRINCIPAL property in the JNDI environment.

End of the caution.
