ClientApi::DefinePassword( const char *, Error * )

Sets P4PASSWD in the Windows registry and applies the setting immediately.

Virtual?

No

  

Class

ClientApi

 

Arguments

const char *c

the new P4PASSWD setting
 

Error *e

an Error object

Returns

void

 

Notes

To make the new P4PASSWD setting apply to the next command executed with Run(), DefinePassword() sets the value in the registry and then calls SetPassword().

DefinePassword() does not define a new server-side password for the user.

Call DefinePassword() with either the plaintext password, or its MD5 hash

Example

The following code illustrates how this method might be used to make a Windows client application start up with a default P4PASSWD setting.

client.Init( &e );
client.DefinePassword( "default_pass", &e );
