[opencms-dev] Switch users and project programatically

[Mario Jäger]

Hi Paul,

It is better to get an independent copy of the provided CmsObject with:

CmsObject copyCms = org.opencms.main.OpenCmsCore.initCmsObject(cms);

On this independent copy of the CmsObject you can login as the 
administrator user then and change the project. After modifying files in 
the Vfs no further actions are necessary, because you have not changed 
the current CmsObject then.

Kind Regards,
Mario.
