Problem with User Objects in Portal.

Question

Hi Gurus,
                       I am trying to get User Objects and do some operations  like retrieve User information etc through a Plain Java Class.
1] Jar files that I am using are - sapj2eeclient.jar
                                              com.sap.security.api.jar
                                              logging.jar
this is the code that I am using.
Properties props = new Properties();
        try{
        props.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory");
        props.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "iiop://localhost:50007");
        props.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "administrator");
        props.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "somil007");
        props.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "com.sap.engine.services");
         InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext(props);
String uid = "USER.PRIVATE_DATASOURCE.un:dhorions";
try {
if(UMFactory.isInitialized()){
UMFactory umf = UMFactory.getInstance();
IUserFactory userFactory = UMFactory.getUserFactory();
IUser user  = userFactory.getUser(uid);
String username = user.getDisplayName();
String email = user.getEmail();
System.out.println(username);
System.out.println(email);
else {
System.out.println("Not Initialized");
catch (UMException e) {
String exmsg = null;
if(e.getNestedException()!= null)
exmsg = e.getNestedException().getLocalizedMessage();
else
exmsg = e.getLocalizedMessage();
System.out.println("UME EXception:" +exmsg);
e.printStackTrace();
catch(javax.naming.NamingException e) {
     e.printStackTrace();
Now when I run  this code I check "if UMFactory.isInitialized()" do operation else Print "some message" and I end up getting the message in  "Not Initialized".
Can anyone help me with this ?
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
There is no need to create any Java file or program to get these simple information. All you have to do is that you have to add the seurity API in your WD application by righclicking on WD project --> properties --> java buld path --> add external jars --> com.sap.security.api
Please make a search on com.sap.security.api in help.sap.com and SDN. You will get lot of information. This will resolve the issue.
Cheers
