<h1>Adding a third-part account to Bioclise</h1>
<h2>Introduction</h2>
To be able to use all the capabilities of some the features in Bioclipse (e.g. OpenTox) you need to log on to
their web-service. In Bioclipse this is done via an Bioclipse account where the
the required information, normally your log-in name and password for the web-service, are stored.
Then when you log-in to your Bioclipse account you will be automatically logged in to the installed
features web-services.<br>
The creation of a Bioclipse account and adding the third-part account can be done in two ways:
Either from <a href="#prefs"><b>Window > Preferences... > Users</b></a>. Or by using the wizard you find under <a href="#wizard"><b>File > New... > General > Account</b></a>.
<br><br>
<a name="Wizard"><h2>Using the wizard</h2></a>
This is probably the easiest way, especially if you don't have any Bioclipse user-account yet. If you can't find this alternative, it's probably because you don't have any feature
that needs a log-in installed. Features are simple to install from <b>Help > Install new Bioclipse feature</b>, see also the section <a href="tutorials/updating.html">Installing

Bioclipse account and you will see a green padlock in status line at the bottom of the Bioclipse window.<br>
If some reason Bioclipse failed to log-in to any of your third-part accounts, you will get a dialog telling you which of them that failed. See more about that in the section

<a name="prefs"><h2>Using Preferences</h2></a>
As mentioned in the introduction you may also add a third-part account from Bioclipse Preferences. Choose <b>Window > Preferences </b> and then <b>Users</b> in the list to the
left of the preferences dialog. The view to the right will now show a list of the different Bioclipse user accounts. It's also from here that you administrate your account(s), i.e. change password etc,
so it might be good to notice the different settings that can be made, even though they are not discussed here (see more about those in <a href="workbench/wb_preferences.html">

<h3>Log in</h3>
Logging in to your Bioclipse account (and then also your different third-parts account) is simple; just choose <b>File > log in</b> or click on the orange padlock in the status line at
the bottom of the bioclipse window. Then fill in your username and password in the dialog that appears. When you have logged in the padlock will become green.<br>
If you can't find any log-in, it's probably because you don't have any feature that supports this installed, or that you don't have created any Bioclipse account yet.<br>
If, for some reason, Bioclipse failed to log-in to any of your third-part accounts, you will get a dialog telling you for which of them that that the log in failed. Then check your internet connection and/or your
user settings for the third-part account(s) that failed, this is done in <b>Window > Preferences... > Users</b>. However, you will still be logged in to your Bioclipse account as well as
the the third that didn't failed to log in.<br><br>
<h3>Log out</h3>
Logging out is done by either choosing <b> log out</b> from the <b>File</b>-menu (this option is only visibly when your logged in). Or click on the green padlock. You will then get a
question if you are sure that you want to log out. If you don't want to be asked this any more, just mark the checkbox in the dialog before clicking on OK.
