Hi Preksha,
     Try this code: Include a try-catch block....
try
IWDClientUser wdUser = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
IUser user = wdUser.getSAPUser();
//check whether the user is anonymous
if (user != null)
IUserAccount[] acct = user.getUserAccounts();
if(acct[0] != null)
String strUserid = acct[0].getLogonUid();
//pass the value obtained from the portal to value attribute
wdContext.currentNode().setAttribute(new String(strUserid));
catch(Exception......)
.............//write appropriate code...
Defining the IUser will show an error. To resolve this:
1. Right-click the project in Eclipse or SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio.
2. Select Properties.
3. Choose Java build path -> Libraries -> Add Variable -> Select variable WD_RUNTIME -> Extend -> com.sap.security -> lib -> com.sap.security.api.jar.
4.Open this file and retype the code.
