Component Information and description
This Component is only for the connection from joomla -> application
at the moment are following things supported:
common login
global changing password
global changing username/email
synchronistion of the users ( by first login or registration )
That does i need to run this component?
for this component alone you needs only joomla 1.0.x
it should run with PHP4 und PHP5(tested)
some modules like vbulletin_soap can have own requirements (needs php5 + SOAP extension )
That does this component do?
this component allow you to connect different applications to joomla over SOAP/XMLRPC, SQL Connects ( other methods are posible too )
You should use this component if you wants to have common login with an aplications ( which based on cookie login (session to, because it use cookie to store a sessionid ))
it is posible to create own moduless to connect any applications
