Thomas Mueller commented on JCR-2910:
-------------------------------------
> The code that actually implements these features should already have access
> to internal methods
This requires casting to an *implementation* which is problematic for many
reasons. One reason is that it doesn't work with virtual repositories.
> Please add JackrabbitSession.isAdmin

> Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Thomas Mueller
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently finding out if the session user is an admin requires:
> JackrabbitSession js = (JackrabbitSession) session;
> User user = ((User) js.getUserManager().getAuthorizable(session.getUserID()));
> boolean isAdmin = user.isAdmin();
> Or: ((SessionImpl) session).isAdmin(). However casting to an implementation
> is problematic for several reasons.
> I think it would make sense to add isAdmin() to the JackrabbitSession
> interface, so the code above would be:
> ((JackrabbitSession) session).isAdmin()
