Hello, I have the following script for the pasword:

void $SCR check password$ ()
{
string temp;
cultureGetString(StringIDs.PasswordString,temp,0);

if ((temp == "LVLI") || (temp == "123"))
{
sendEvent (EventIDs.TR_password_correct_lvl1);

else
{
sendEvent (EventIDs.TR_password_wrong);
}
cultureSetString(StringIDs.PasswordString,"",true);
}

void $SCR Reset password$ ()
{
cultureSetString(StringIDs.PasswordString,"",true);
}

I want to let the iser to change the password. How I can do that?

Hello mikwin,

You can store the password chosen by the user in a text file

Code: Select all

string temp;
file f;

cultureGetString(StringIDs.PasswordString,temp,0);
	
if( f.open("password.txt", "w") >= 0 ) 
{
   f.writeString( temp ); 
   f.close();
}

And read it out to compare it when needed

Code: Select all

file f;
string validPwd;
	
if( f.open("password.txt", "r") >= 0 ) 
{
   f.readLine( validPwd ); 
   f.close();
}
else
{
   validPwd = "LVLI"; // default password
}

Regards,
ksaenz

Thank you ksaenz. Ok for the script, but is that will replace or to introduced in the existting script and where?

I will send you my file, if you can help me to fix it.

The first piece of code should be in a script that runs after the user enters the new password to be saved.

The second piece code goes in your $SCR check password$ script before you do the comparison, you will compare to the validPwd variable instead of the hard coded strings.

Code: Select all

if ( temp == validPwd )
{
   sendEvent (EventIDs.TR_password_correct_lvl1);
}
else 
{
   sendEvent (EventIDs.TR_password_wrong);
}

cultureSetString(StringIDs.PasswordString,"",true);

You can me your code via PM and I can help you.
