Hi Rodrigue,
I use an entry element class as arrival:
<arrival destid="EntryElement"/>
The EntryElement is configured like:
<element id="Entry"
implementation="de.sourcepark.ms2.rife.EntryElement" inherits="AuthClient">
<outbean name="customer" prefix="pre_"
classname="de.sourcepark.ms2.rife.customer.CBCustomerActiveEdit"/>
<autolink srcexit="ClientCustomerEdit"/>
<autolink srcexit="CustomerChangePw"/>
</element>
In the class I can call:
RoleUserIdentity identity =
(RoleUserIdentity)getRequestAttribute(Identified.IDENTITY_ATTRIBUTE_NAME);
to get the identity object and then:
identity.getLogin()
To get the username. In the EntryElement you can set if you like a
global var to reflect the logged in user and his role.
Hope this helps.
Ciao
Matthias
