PermissionPolicyUser.SetPassword(String) Method

Changes the user password.

Namespace: DevExpress.Persistent.BaseImpl.PermissionPolicy

Assembly: DevExpress.Persistent.BaseImpl.Xpo.v24.2.dll

#Declaration

public void SetPassword(
    string password
)

#Parameters

Name Type Description
password String

A string which is a new password.

#Remarks

The PermissionPolicyUser class declares the protected StoredPassword property to store a password. Passwords are stored encrypted and cannot be changed directly. Use this method to specify a password when creating a new user in code. An example is provided in the Client-Side Security (2-Tier Architecture) topic.

If you need to allow a user to change password using the ChangePassword action, grant the write access to the StoredPassword property.
