Thanks for the reply. I looked at those methods.
In my custom SecurityMappingHandler, for retrieving roles based on group assigned to user, in the method of getRolePrincipals(String username), I am getting all the groups for the user getGroupPrincipals(String username) and for each group I am calling getRolesInGroup(String groupFullPathName) The only issue that I am seeing currently is Roles that are mapped to Groups assigned to user start showing up in User Detail Information Portlet Ideally, there should not be a delete check box for these Roles as they are not mapped directly to User. They are mapped to Groups that the user belongs to. When I tried to delete those Roles in User Detail Information Portlet, its giving an error saying "The user 'user_name' does not exist.
