Of course I would. As far as I understand gwc, all  
authentication/authorization rules must hold for gwc too. I does not  
make sense to protect resources within geoserver and not  protecting  
them from the cache. Is my understanding correct here ?.

At the moment I am banging my head against the wall. I migrated all  
projects needed for a

mvn clean install -PallExtensions.

I altered the class names contained in applicationSecurityContext.xml  
in the main module.

A "mvn compile" works fine.

But "mvn clean install" results in

ClassNotFoundException for org.springframework.vote.AffirmativeBased

when the applicationSecurityContext.xml file is processed.

Adding a line
System.out.println(System.getProperty("java.class.path"))

in the test case shows that all spring-security jars are in the class path.

The only documentation about migrating I found is here

http://java.dzone.com/tips/pathway-acegi-spring-security-

The author did not migrate the old security xml file, he created a new  
one, which uses xml name spaces. I tried the same and as result, I get  
a parsing error "element beans:beans is missing", but it is there. It  
seems that the XML parser is not namespace aware.

For the moment, I have no further idea, perhaps I have to download all  
necessary source jars and have an in dept debugging session.

Is there an svn repo for gwc ?. Perhaps I could try with gwc to find  
the problem.


so far, so good
