I am facing a real problem inside an application I am trying to build. Basically my aim to provide a way to administrate my users through a java client. And so, as soon as I am loggued as one of the administrator of the service (which is done inside my application), I want to be able to add/delete/modify accounts, change passwords…
Is there such a possibility using the smack API ? Or do I have to develop a wildfire plugin to do so (it is the xmpp server that I am using), that will be called by my application ?
I want to give by instance the possibility for a user to retreive (or at least reset) its password…
I am trynig to delegate the user management my whole application to the XMPP part… That is why I would like to be able to do all this administration stuff from inside my client… And not using wildfire…
The class AccountManager has a few admin methods which you can use.
Sorry, from your initial thread, I read it as you wanted to create an app by which one person could manage all users and not just a single user managing their own account details.
Wildfire supports some ad-hoc commands to manage different things - one should query Wildfire to get a list of them. You may want to search the forum for ad-hoc commands and look herehttp://www.jivesoftware.org/community/thread.jspa?messageID=128185.
