Hi I was trying to use Android Password expiration feature using DeviceAdmin. When I call setPasswordExpirationTimeout() API , it only sends a notification and doesnt actually force the user to change the password. It only sends a notification after timeout :
V/DevicePolicyManagerService( 662): Sending password expiration notifications for action com.android.server.ACTION_EXPIRED_PASSWORD_NOTIFICATION You have to get the callback in DeviceAdminReceiver in onPasswordExpired() to force user to change password. Any specific reason its been implemented this way ( or is it just to give flexibility to the programmer ) ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
