UniquenessDegree: Integer;
The UniquenessDegree property determines the minimum difference of an old password from a new one (characters).
To execute the example, add a link to the Metabase system assembly.
Sub UserProc;
Var
MB: IMetabase;
MS: IMetabaseSecurity;
MU: IMetabasePolicy;
PassPol: IMetabasePasswordPolicy;
Lic: Object;
Begin
MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
// Check out license to work with security manager
Lic := MB.RequestLicense(UiLicenseFeatureType.Adm);
MS := MB.Security;
MU := MS.Policy;
PassPol := MU.PasswordPolicy;
// Set minimum difference of the old password from the new one in characters
PassPol.UniquenessDegree := 5;
// Save changes
MS.Apply;
// Check in license
Lic := Null;
End Sub UserProc;
After executing the example the minimum difference of the old password from a new one is set 5 characters.
