Update user session after update

[Kevin Gebel, geändert vor 12 Jahren.]

Hello !

I am updating user's attributes in a portlet (name, surname, etc.). How can I refresh user's session to update the UI (username in dockbar, etc.) ?

Thanks,
Kevin

Hey Kevin,

Are your changes available in the database? I'm pretty sure that once you update the User object in the database Liferay will update the interface automagically.

[Kevin Gebel, geändert vor 12 Jahren.]

Yes, database is updated correctly. But the dockbar is not up to date...

Which service/method are you using to update the user?

[Kevin Gebel, geändert vor 12 Jahren.]

I use UserLocalServiceUtil.updateUser(liferayUser).
Fields are updated in the database.

Humm, try to use the UserLocalServiceUtil.updateUser(long, userId, .... ServiceContext serviceContext). I know that this method has a big list of parameters but this is the right method to call when updating an user.

Thats really strange. Even updateUser with just one argument should work properly. Can you please check/debug in UserPersistenceImpl.updateImpl(com.liferay.portal.model.User user, boolean merge)

I am not sure which finder is used in dock. But the caches are cleared and refilled in the method, whether it be argument with User or the multi argument method.

Regards,
Sandeep

I forgot to specify : if I refresh my page (F5), the dockbar is updated.
