Example of use of the class CRecordSessionLogin (after generating)

You need the microservice ID of the session manager:

public static final IId SESSION_MICROSERVICE_ID = CIdFactory.fromObject("ccf168c1-f18b-4229-85f9-24461a19ee6a");

In the example we take the password directly from a Swing password widget. For the request you need the Base64-encoded SHA384 hash of the password in addition to the userId. You can use a utility method of the kernel: CUtilPassword.hashPassword().

// request
private void login(@NotNull final String aUserId,
                   @NotNull final JPasswordField aPasswordField) throws CException
{
    final String passwordHash = CUtilPassword.hashPassword(aPasswordField.getPassword());

    final CEnvelope env = CEnvelope.forMicroService(SESSION_MICROSERVICE_ID);

    final CRecord record = CRecordSessionLogin.create();
    CRecordSessionLogin.setUserId(record,
                                  aUserId);
    CRecordSessionLogin.setPassword(record,
                                    passwordHash);

    sendRequest(env,
                record);
}

To catch the response of the request, we need a message handler. We add it in the constructor of the message handler registry.

// constructor:
addMessageHandler(CRecordSessionLogin.ID,
                  this::asyncSessionLogin);

// fetch reply
private boolean asyncSessionLogin(@NotNull final CEnvelope aEnvelope,
                                  @NotNull final CRecord aRecord)
{
    if (aEnvelope.isAnswer())
    {
        final int resultCode = aEnvelope.getResultCode();
        if (resultCode == CResultCode.SUCCESS)
        {
            final UUID token = CRecordSessionLogin.getToken(aRecord,
                                                            null);
            // ...
        }
        else
        {
            // ...
        }
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}
