Hi Robert,
I think this could be of interest to the larger group. If you have some
time, I'd be happy to commit your patch (feel free to open a JIRA issue and
attach a patch against the latest CVS).
You mentioned that you patched your local copy. Actually it's possible for
you to have this feature without touching the Cactus codebase, which is
better I think as it allows you to upgrade seamlessly.
The solution is to write a custom wrapper around HttpServletRequestWrapper.
This custom wrapper would add the setUserPrincipal() method. In your test
you would write:
public void testXXX()
{
MyWrapper request2 = new MyWrapper(request);
[...]
// use request2 instead of request in all calls requiring a request
}
Thanks
-Vincent
