In modern web applications it's convenient that a user has an option for automatic authentication for his next visits.We offer the same feature for your backend applications. Simply set following property in your application.xml:

Code: Select all
<Application.authenticator>com.sibvisions.apps.auth.AutoLoginAuthenticator</Application.authenticator>


This shows a new checkbox (Automatic authentication) in your Login dialog and automatically authenticates returning users. If the user logs out manually, the automatic authentication will be disabled until the option will be checked again.

The automatic authentication mechanism does not store username and password on the client!
