We are trying to manage our connection strings in such a way that normal business users will never even see them -- by setting them apart in include files that developers will use to develop with, and that the QVS service will use to refresh the applications with. The connections will be centrally managed and updated by IT as they change. We are looking to build a utility to manage these include/connection files. When passwords change, it will be up to us (in IT) to update the connection files.
So here's my question: is there a way, using the SDK, to make a call to the QlikView password encryption function? For example, I have a password "abc123" that ends up looking like LAKJSA98V0A8V8 in my script after I make a connection using the Wizard in Personal Edition. Is there a function in the SDK that would let me do something like string encrypted_password = qmsService.scramble("abc123"); ????
