Ahh .. that makes sense.  If I may make one suggestion though -- you can use 
CASAuthNHeader with a more descriptive name.  For example:

CASAuthNHeader USER_NAME

And then, you can use request.getHeader("USER_NAME").

Matt,

In one application out of many, MicroStrategy (Business Intelligence
Server)  on which I am working is not exposing the http request API, so
that I get the user form the request directly. They exposed a very
little code in their SDK and abstracted the http request object. I am
dealing with them to see on getting the remote user.  But their API is
exposing the method to get the header value. So in other words, I can
not call request.gerRemoteUser() in the code they exposed, but I can
call request.getHeader.

 

So that is the reason why I will be using both, request.getRemoteUser in
other apps and request.getHeader("on") in the MicroStretagy SDK.

 

Thanks for the help.

Srikar.
