Example: Retrieving an attribute value from a Resource

One concrete subclass of Resource is com.ibm.as400.resource.RUser, which represents an iSeries™ user. RUser supports many attribute IDs, each of which you can use to get attribute values.

This example retrieves an attribute value from an RUser:

   // Create an RUser object to refer to a specific user.
   AS400 system = new AS400("MYSYSTEM", "MYUSERID", "MYPASSWORD");
   RUser user = new RUser(system, "AUSERID");

   // Get the text description attribute value.
   String textDescription = (String)user.getAttributeValue(RUser.TEXT_DESCRIPTION);
