Hi Tim,
Following your suggestion, I passed the follow URL to my browser:
http://localhost:8080/FakePA/FakePA-app-client?prop=NumberOfLoginRetries=3
and it indeed allows me to try login 3 times before an exception is thrown. From Issue 2310, I guess, as of now, there is no way to differentiate "canceled login" from "invalid login".
I apologize ahead of time for repeating my question here again...
If I choose to use JNDI-lookups in my application client, it seems like my application client would be equivalent to a "stand-alone app + Java Web Start". Are there other benefits in writing application client instead of stand-alone app that I'm missing?
Thanks.
Ben
