Sample broken.

                            System.Reflection.MethodInfo mi = typeof(SecurityStrategyBase).GetMethod("InitializeNewUser", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic);

Should be:

                            System.Reflection.MethodInfo mi = typeof(SecurityStrategyBase).GetMethod("InitializeNewUserCore", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic);

In 11.2.11

Hello,
Thank you very much for this great functionality.
However I want the "UserName" and "Password" fields to be DISABLED , when the "ActiveDirectory" checkbox is checked. If it is unchecked then these values should be enabled again. It will be a better approach for the end users. How can I accomplish this. I tried using the "Appearance" module. But it didn't work.
For Example:
I put below Attribute above the UserName property
[Appearance("DisablePassword", Enabled = false, Criteria = "UseActiveDirectory",Context="DetailView")]
But didn't work.

Thanks.

I was having the same issue as Yahya and Martin. I solved it by merging codes from E2371, E3931 and https://documentation.devexpress.com/#Xaf/CustomDocument3475

Works like a charm now.

[C#]
publicclassMyLogonController:ViewController<DetailView>{publicMyLogonController(){TargetObjectType=typeof(AuthenticationCombinedLogonParameters);}protectedoverridevoidOnActivated(){base.OnActivated();PropertyEditoreditor=View.FindItem("UseActiveDirectory")asPropertyEditor;if(editor!=null){editor.ValueStored+=newEventHandler(editor_ValueStored);}}voideditor_ValueStored(objectsender,EventArgse){Frame.GetController<AppearanceController>().Refresh();}}

We will address this issue in the future when improve the support for non-persistent objects.
