That feature was added to the Java CAS client in version 3.1.8,
http://www.ja-sig.org/issues/browse/CASC-93.  In order to use it, your
application would need to use the SAML protocol to validate tickets,
which is the only mechanism at present to communicate role data from
the CAS server to client for inspection via isUserInRole.  See
http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/CASUM/SAML+1.1 for more info about
using SAML.
