Signature

public boolean ucExpiredPasswordExit( 
                   HttpServletRequest request,      // the servlet request
                   HttpServletResponse response,    // the servlet response
                   Connection dbconn,               //the database connection
                   SesameSession session) 
                       throws Exception             // current session

Notes

Return Boolean true if the expired password exit was handled. Return false if nothing is done – this will cause the calling class (LoginDisplay) to go to the Expired Password screen

Example

public boolean ucExpiredPasswordExit(
                HttpServletRequest request,               // the servlet request
                HttpServletResponse response,             // the servlet response
                Connection dbconn,                        // the database connection
                SesameSession session) throws Exception { // current session

        if (Z.config.getConfigValue("Random_Password_Pass".toUpperCase()) != null) {
            RequestPasswordDisplay.doDisplay(request, response, dbconn, session);
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
