This might not be related, Struts2/webwork have a PrincipalAware interface that allows a PricipalProxy to be injected, such that information regarding role and its related information could be retrieved. Just in case others might be searching jira for this feature, its mentioned in the faqs i think, if not mistaken. > Canonical or example app-based, role-based authentication methodology > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: WW-1469 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-1469 > Project: Struts 2 > Issue Type: New Feature > Affects Versions: 2.0.1 > Reporter: Dave Newton > Assigned To: Don Brown > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.0.2 > > > Rather than implementing full-blown Acegi access control it would be nice if > there was a built-in way to do simple role-based authentication from within > the application, similar to how we used to override processRoles in Struts1. > This might be as easy as adding a csvRoles (or whatever) getter to > ActionSupport to imply a default param for setting an Action's allowable > roles and supplying a canned, configurable interceptor that would process it. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/struts/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
