When you import the sample, it creates the appropriate projects for you to explore. For instructions on how to import and run the application, click Setup for Rich UI access to LDAP.
In this sample, you will retrieve data from an LDAP-compliant server for either an employee or customer of Sample Company. The Rich UI application starts by displaying a login screen. Enter a user ID and password, which the Rich UI handler uses to call a web service to bind to the server. If the bind is successful (that is, the user ID and password are found in the LDAP directory), you are authenticated. The web service then retrieves user data, such as a department and business unit for an employee or a company name and address for a customer, from the LDAP-compliant server. The web service returns the data to the Rich UI handler, which displays the data on the screen.
