PermissionPolicyUser.SetPassword(String) Method

Changes the user password.

Namespace: DevExpress.Persistent.BaseImpl.PermissionPolicy

Assembly: DevExpress.Persistent.BaseImpl.v20.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Persistent.BaseImpl

Declaration

C#

public void SetPassword(
    string password
)

VB.NET

Public Sub SetPassword(
    password As String
)

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.
