Re: swapping a user id question

Hi
This is the scenario i tested and it worked
I created a AS400 object in java (Created in QUSRWRK)
The user id i used was ABC, and then i called a RPG
program, which swapped the current jobs user id to
XYZ,
it worked as expected, i had to make sure that XYZ had
authority to user id ABC

can the RPG program swap it to User id XYZ,

provided

they have proper authority,
I know program swap does not work in java program

if

the java program is running outside of AS400.

Since you're running off the System i ... can you
just connect to the
system with the user id you would normally swap to?

Although I haven't played around with swaping
profiles in Java, perhaps
the ProfileTokenCredential object would be of use
