need to invoke an external class file upon a successfull pwd change

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I want to trigger a change in passwords of a couple of orcl dbs after a change 
in the ldap password.
I have written a java class for the same.
How should I go about integrating that java class into PWM infrastructure?

I am also looking for something similar to this too.  I would like to preform a 
HTTP REST api call after a successful forgot password identification process.

See 'password.pwm.ExternalChangeMethod' class.  And setting ConfigManager -> 
Misc -> External Change Method.

Please comment here if you need something beyond this interface.

If I put in my class file into the appropriate folder under classes, do I need 
to restart Tomcat? It does not seem to be picking up the changes..

Yes, a tomcat restart is required.

how do I get the username of the current user from the pwmSession variable in 
ExternalChangeMethod after successfull pwd change?
When I do a pwmSession.getUserID(), I get a null.
When I do a pwmSession.getUserInfoBean().getUserDN(), I get a long string with 
whole lot info.
Need exactly the user id.
thanks for all the help so far

I am just starting down this road and was wondering if either of the previous 
posters were able to successfully use the External Change Method interface. If 
so, would you be willing to share your code?

Thanks
