Basically how can I access the info stored in the following dialog through the SDL SDK?
Use case:
I have a custom verification plug-in that accesses Groupshare TMs.
However, Groupshare project settings are shared for all users, so I cannot have the user enter their credentials under verification settings.
Therefore, it would be easiest to programmatically retrieve the credentials so I can access the Groupshare server automatically.

Hi Romulus,
The same user, but I still have to enter credentials to access the TM AFAIK.
Basically I want to access the TM without having to enter credentials (since the user is already connected to the server).
Here is some sample code:
Translate
TranslationProviderServer server = new TranslationProviderServer(new Uri(@"http://XXXXX"),
false,
credentials.Username,
credentials.Password);
ServerBasedTranslationMemory tm = server.GetTranslationMemory(ServerBasedTranslationMemory.GetServerBasedTranslationMemoryPath(mainTM.Uri), TranslationMemoryProperties.None);

Hi Romulus,
Thanks for verifying. Right now that is what I do, acquire the credentials from the user and store them.
I guess there are security issues involved, but it would be nice to have the following constructor:
TranslationProviderServer(
Uri serverUri,
bool useWindowsAuthentication,
bool useEncryptedCredentialStore, // <--- Use the credentials from the encrypted store
string userName,
string password)
Hi Jesse,
Do you know if there's any improvements to TranslationProviderServer constructor?
