Looks fine for me. I would commit it after we tag 3.2.0-GA (which btw should have happened
already but I may need to postpone a little bit more because of some other emergencies).

Hi,
so implementation is done and I attached proposed patch GTNPORTAL-2358-fullName.patch to
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/GTNPORTAL-2358 . What I did is:
- Adding new UI field with name "displayName" to all UI forms, where you can
create or edit user ( UIRegisterInputSet, UIAccountProfiles, UIAccountInputSet,
UIAccountEditInputSet ). So name of UI field is "displayName" and name of
localization label is also "displayName". I added localizations only for
"en" and "cs" properties bundles as I don't know other languages
:)
- UI components are communicating with User interface via "setFullName" and
"getFullName". So fullName is now used as temporary placeholder until methods
"getDisplayName" and "setDisplayName" will be available in
Organization API. I added "TODO: GTNPORTAL-2358" in all pieces of code,
which needs to be changed once displayName will be available in Organization API. This
will allow us to use getDisplayName and setDisplayName and get rid of fullName as
temporary placeholder.
- IDM integration is changed to support persistent implementations of
"getFullName" and "setFullName". For this purpose I forked class
UserImpl from Organization API (I made a subclass of eXo UserImpl class with overriden
methods getFullName and setFullName). Again, name of new attribute at DB level is
"displayName", which will assure compatibility with future versions (after
support for displayName in Organization API will be added).
Let me know if it looks ok.
I also not sure what is final decision of having it in GateIn. I think we have
possibilities:
- push it to GateIn 3.2.GA (but I guess it's too late for it)
- push it to GateIn trunk after 3.2.GA release (This is what i can propose)
- don't add it to GateIn until displayName support in Organization api, because
persistent displayName field can't work with eXo OrganizationService implementations.
Thanks,
Marek

we can also fork class UserImpl into portal codebase (into artifact
exo.portal.component.identity, which is defacto Picketlink IDM based implementation

default) to have this feature before EXOJCR-1780 will be fixed and available in GateIn.
