<div><p></p>
<div class="section"><p>The user and group classes allow you to get a list of users and
user groups on the iSeries™ server as well as information about each
user through a Java™ program.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> IBM<sup>®</sup> Toolbox
for Java also
provides <a href="resources.htm#resources">resource classes</a> that
present a generic framework and consistent programming interface for working
with various iSeries objects
and lists. After reading about the classes in the <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/package-summary.html#NAVBAR_TOP">access package</a> and the <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/resource/package-summary.html#NAVBAR_TOP">resource package</a>, you can choose the object that works
best for your application. The resource classes for working with users are <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/resource/RUser.html#NAVBAR_TOP"> RUser</a> and <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/resource/RUserList.html#NAVBAR_TOP"> RUserList</a>.</div>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>Some of the user information you can retrieve includes previous
sign-on date, status, date the password was last changed, date the password
expires, and user class. When you access the <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/User.html">User</a> object, use the <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/User.html#SETSYSTEM(COM.IBM.AS400.ACCESS.AS400)"> setSystem()</a> method to set the system name and the <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/User.html#SETNAME(JAVA.LANG.STRING)"> setName()</a> method to set the user name. After those steps,
you use the <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/User.html#LOADUSERINFORMATION()"> loadUserInformation()</a> method to get the information
from the iSeries.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>The <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/UserGroup.html"> UserGroup</a> object represents a special user whose user
profile is a group profile. Using the <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/UserGroup.html#GETMEMBERS()"> getMembers()</a> method, a list of users that are members
of the group can be returned.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p><span class="synph" id="usrgrp__usgex1"><a name="usrgrp__usgex1"><!-- --></a><span class="kwd"></span></span>The Java program
can iterate through the list using an enumeration. All elements in the enumeration
are <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/User.html#NAVBAR_TOP">User</a> objects; for example:</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><div class="p"><pre> // Create an AS400 object.
AS400 system = new AS400 ("mySystem.myCompany.com");
// Create the UserList object.
UserList userList = new UserList (system);
// Get the list of all users and groups.
Enumeration enum = userList.getUsers ();
// Iterate through the list.
while (enum.hasMoreElements ())
{
User u = (User) enum.nextElement ();
System.out.println (u);
}</pre>

<div class="section"><ul><li><a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/UserList.html#ALL"> All</a> users and groups</li>
<li>Only <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/UserList.html#GROUP">groups</a></li>

<div class="section"><p>The only property of the UserList object that must be set is the <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/AS400.html#NAVBAR_TOP">
AS400</a> object that represents the system from which the list of users
is to be retrieved.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>By default, all users are returned. Use a combination of <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/UserList.html#SETUSERINFO(JAVA.LANG.STRING)"> setUserInfo()</a> and <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/UserList.html#SETGROUPINFO(JAVA.LANG.STRING)"> setGroupInfo()</a> to specify exactly which users are returned.</p>
