B4J Question "password forgotten" methods... advice needed

[Cableguy]

Hi guys...
Pursuing my adventure in the RDC world, I am at the point of creating a login system, but would also like to implement a "password forgotten" kind of method, so that a user that has forgotten his password can reset it...

So, I need pointers on the way to go about this...

You should create a server solution instead of only using RDC. As jRDC2 is implemented with B4J it is simple to extend it and add more functionality. In this case you need to get the user email address from the database and send the user an email with a temporary password. This should happen in the server side.

Since server work is all new stuff for me, can you post an example on how to create such a method... A very simple one, like just sending an email from a database call....
Please

I'm afraid that it is not very simple. It is not difficult but you do need to understand how to work with jServer library.
