They call DSImport to add records to OD as needed and they're set up to push the employee_id into that attribute. Actually, there's a scenario right there that supports your suggestion to have an intermediary GenericUser table since that is essentially the same position the old FileMaker database holds - collection of everyone. This approach makes the ldap side of things the starting point since that is the store that knows what type of user the person is. If ldap authentication is successful, I query for the matching GenericUser which is essentially an ldap person since GenericUser inherits from InetOrgPerson. That sounds like a correct use of inheritance. I think you are going to need a restricting qualifier on InetOrgPerson that is always false. I tried the (1=0) restricting qualifier and EOGenerator did not like it and coughed up an error about being unable to parse the qualifier. Good thought though. Well, I've got a version in my repository the way it is. I'm trying to model it the other way around now and we'll see how that works. Then, I can test for the related employee record. If there, foo, if not, bar - depends on the app. It sounds like your preferred approach would be to create another table for GenericUser making it a database entity instead of inheriting from InetOrgPerson. That could work too. The problem there is then I have two entities, InetOrgPerson and GenericUser that have to have similar attributes, including usertype, email, etc. And, when a new Employee is created, I'd have to force the creation of a GenericUser.

Re: used shibboleth
Daniel:
I'm looking into the same thing for my apps. From what I've read it
seems like there can be some level of customization between each
particular service provider and the IdP. I think the service provider
admin and the IdP admin can decide together what is going to come back
for a particular app. I get the feeling that what comes back in the
REMOTE_USER header can have multiple attributes.
Depending on the app, what comes back could be mappable to a user
type object or not. Along those lines, a framework might include logic
for reading preferences for:
1. Entity.name(s) you want to grab automatically
2. attribute(s) of those entities that map to the received data
You may also want some data item that helps with authorization.
There's not much needed to make a really abstract framework and each
installation is likely to be really customizable. But, I'm happy to
share whatever I come up with when I get there.

Subject: Re: used shibboleth
Greetings Joe,
Any parsing on that string? Does it contain information as to what
realm or authority granted the ticket?
In my case, I am trying to use it similar to a UID in establishing
a standard set of permissions in my app(s). Naturally, identifying
groups would be nice, too. I am not sure how to approach this
topic. But my initial guesses would say to look up the LDAP
information for participating institutions in my federation and
determine group and user permissions accordingly.
Unfortunately, this one of those areas where security can high-jack
a project, even a dissertation with all the academic freedom in the
world.

Greetings Chuck,
It seems that you are quite correct as I have started to
investigate this
issue of SSO-WO. There is a page from Shibboleth that confirms
that
REMOTE_USER is the header - environment variable needed
(https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/SHIB2/NativeSPEnableApplication
).
What value it gives and how we can use that information is a
whole different
story altogether. Would you be willing to advise me on creating
enough of a
Shibboleth - WO framework such that we could make good use of
it? The
work you did with Cosign and WebAuth may be highly valuable in
working up
some Federated WO Authentication Framework.
I should jump in here as we were testing Shibboleth here and were
one
of those WebAuth sites. I'm actually switching to using just plain
kerberos for our next project, as at least with WebAuth and
furthermore with any use of the REMOTE_USER you either have to
(WebAuth requires https:// only sites) or should for security
reasons
restrict everything to SSL. In my case, I have other portions of
the
app that are best suited one-time passwords and the like for
users who
have no relationship with us for certain actions they need. But, I
digress.
The general bit is that you restrict your site via Apache to be
bound
by mod_webauth, mod_shibboleth, etc. Thus, all users are pre-authed
before they get to you. You then simple check the WOContext to
get the
value you want from the header.
Here's the webauth example (webauth sets two vars, I went for the
more
specific of the two:
/**
* Get WebAuth User
**/
public String webAuthUser()
{
webAuthUser = context().request().headerForKey
(webauth_user);
return webAuthUser;
}
You'd simply switch that to remote_user
And for completeness, in your login() or similar code, we simply
tested for a webauth session (this example is incomplete for all the
tests you'd want to do) and if so, we avoided the login user/
password
prompt which was only effective when it wasn't an SSL session for
development/testing
/**
* Test if there is a WebAuth User
**/
public boolean isWebAuthSession()
{
boolean result = false;
if (webAuthUser() != null) {
result = true;
((Session)session()).setUserLogin(webAuthUser());
}
return(result);
}
But, you get the idea.
Thank you,
Dan

What you are writing does not seem to be consistent. If you added the existing framework to the new framework then it does not make sense to expect the older framework to retain visibility to the types in the newer one. The new can see the existing, not vice versa. Maybe if you describe the problem in specifics with the real names that may help to clarify things. I think that's exactly right. I think I had an expectation that wasn't reasonable. :-) The real problem is a can of worms. I work for a professional school at UCLA - a campus whose technology is highly decentralized. So, one model represents Employee data (what I was calling 'B') that I pull from central campus daily. Locally, here in our school, we also have an ldap directory, completely separate from anything central campus holds. It is specific to our school only. These data sources are both modeled and have their own frameworks. I have married them programmatically with manual fetches (LDAPPerson - Employee) for login to my most important app - a timesheet app. This all works great but is highly inflexible for new apps - which brings me to where I am. My latest app is for faculty to login only. Believe it or not, the campus Employee data does not have any fields that specify the type of user. But our local ldap directory does. That's problem one. The faculty project is about their Papers. So, I wanted to relate Papers - Employee. A Paper could have multiple faculty contributors and a faculty person could have multiple papers. Also, I wanted a new model (same database) for this faculty project because it doesn't need to know about timesheet stuff. So, I built that model (what I was calling 'A') and I was trying to build a relationship to the Employee data in 'B'. Since the many to many requires the Employee entity to maintain pointers back, it isn't working. But the truth is, for this project I'm only interested in faculty - something Employee doesn't even know about. can of worms. I think I have a problem with approach. I think the best approach may be to sub-class my user types in a third framework? I've been putting this off. :-) I am really not sure what you are doing and what you are seeing so it is hard to advise you on the best direction to take. I understand why the approach I was taking won't work. So, maybe you can vet the one I'm trying today. I was thinking I need to create a framework to relate LDAPPerson and Employee in a single framework and create new model there with GenericUser. This GenericUser would then wrap both their ldap source and their employee data source in a single entity and hold that relationship. It sounds like a lot of overhead but maybe the right thing to do. Then I could subclass that user into FacultyPerson, StaffPerson, StudentPerson, etc. , maybe even in separate frameworks. This sounds like it could put me in a better position to achieve what I want.

The problem I see on my end is that everything seems to work - relationship add, flattening, etc., but then when I clean everything the older framework does not retain visibility to the types in the newer one. What you are writing does not seem to be consistent. If you added the existing framework to the new framework then it does not make sense to expect the older framework to retain visibility to the types in the newer one. The new can see the existing, not vice versa. Maybe if you describe the problem in specifics with the real names that may help to clarify things. I think that's exactly right. I think I had an expectation that wasn't reasonable. :-) The real problem is a can of worms. I work for a professional school at UCLA - a campus whose technology is highly decentralized. So, one model represents Employee data (what I was calling 'B') that I pull from central campus daily. Locally, here in our school, we also have an ldap directory, completely separate from anything central campus holds. It is specific to our school only. These data sources are both modeled and have their own frameworks. I have married them programmatically with manual fetches (LDAPPerson - Employee) for login to my most important app - a timesheet app. This all works great but is highly inflexible for new apps - which brings me to where I am. My latest app is for faculty to login only. Believe it or not, the campus Employee data does not have any fields that specify the type of user. But our local ldap directory does. That's problem one. The faculty project is about their Papers. So, I wanted to relate Papers - Employee. A Paper could have multiple faculty contributors and a faculty person could have multiple papers. Also, I wanted a new model (same database) for this faculty project because it doesn't need to know about timesheet stuff. So, I built that model (what I was calling 'A') and I was trying to build a relationship to the Employee data in 'B'. Since the many to many requires the Employee entity to maintain pointers back, it isn't working. But the truth is, for this project I'm only interested in faculty - something Employee doesn't even know about. can of worms. I think I have a problem with approach. I think the best approach may be to sub-class my user types in a third framework? I've been putting this off. :-) I am really not sure what you are doing and what you are seeing so it is hard to advise you on the best direction to take. I understand why the approach I was taking won't work. So, maybe you can vet the one I'm trying today. I was thinking I need to create a framework to relate LDAPPerson and Employee in a single framework and create new model there with GenericUser. This GenericUser would then wrap both their ldap source and their employee data source in a single entity and hold that relationship. It sounds like a lot of overhead but maybe the right thing to do. Then I could subclass that user into FacultyPerson, StaffPerson, StudentPerson, etc. , maybe even in separate frameworks. This sounds like it could put me in a better position to achieve what I want. I think that is exactly

Apparently, with shibboleth you can designate somehow that certain data gets sent back to the requesting server - I think in the http headers. So, I'm assuming that there's some intention to return something that will identify the user since other systems on campus are already using it. And I think I've read that campus wants to standardize what the returned items are. If it works as described, is sounds like it has the potential to make authentication to my apps easier if we choose to use this instead of our LDAP auth. Have you looked at or used shibboleth Chuck?

Re: [Wonder-disc] OpenBase / boolean / ERPrototypes
Ricardo:
I use OpenBase and have boolean columns. I have mine modeled like the
first boolean prototype below. The prototype sets the valueType to
String and uses toString() to convert the java boolean to a 5
character varchar in the database (for false). The result is that it
actually writes true or false (String) to the database. So, your
column type in OpenBase should not be boolean, it should be varchar, 5.
I haven't used the approach of the intBoolean prototype.
I am not using the WOnder prototypes but Practical WebObjects also
describes modeling booleans in this fashion - which I like.

I've been trying all kinds of things to get these booleans to
work... And I just thought of one which might work. I'll change
the type in openbase for those columns back to integer type. Then
I'll use the intBoolean prototype from ERPrototypes. I assume
that's what the intBoolean prototype is for: to have a boolean in
your EO stored as an integer in the database. Right?

There seems to be something wrong with booleans when using

question on security scanning
All: I just had a meeting regarding one of my apps today with some central IT types at our university. One of the questions that was asked of me (for the first time actually) was whether I had run a security scanner test the application. While I'm not so naive as to think there can't be any security issues, I had always felt that the many levels of abstraction in WO/EOF naturally insulated me from some of these considerations. For background, this central IT group is heavily microsoft leaning - so they kind of live in a different world where security is concerned and think they believe that the entire world of computing has the same architectural considerations they do. Their question was obviously out of concern that an attack could be crafted against the app to extract data from the database. It's difficult for me to imagine how this would be possible with WO/EOF but I may have naively looked past this. To get to the point, I'd be interested in hearing from developers on list about whether you have scans performed against your apps. Yes or no, what were the considerations that drove the choice.

Guess this one got lost. :-) In a team environment, I'd say these are vital to maintaining standards and preventing undesired changes. I don't see why there would / should be frequent changes. Well the annoying thing is whenever someone creates a component or somehow triggers this file getting updated you get a conflict because wolips is always inserting a timestamp at the top of the file which differs from someone else's on the team (which is unnecessary anyway as the file has it's own mod dates) in addition to specifying the encoding of the component as UTF-8. I don't know why they all need to be listed as UTF-8 when the parent already is? Or is there some other setting that needs touching? That's kind of what I'm seeing. At this point I'm a single developer (works in so many ways) and I notice that when I switch between branches where this file may have been touched I get conflicts I don't need or want. For giggles, I actually deleted the .settings directory from one version of a project and that had no ill effects on the project. I can always restore that version but I was interested to see what would happen. Maybe someone knows of some impending doom from deleting it? There are (or can be) other files in that directory. Perhaps you can just ignore org.eclipse.core.resources.prefs? Yeah, I can definitely do that. In one project that file has a full list of components I've ever created for that project along with the encoding of each file - like Lachlan said. In another project it only has: #Tue Oct 21 00:28:59 PDT 2008 eclipse.preferences.version=1 encoding/Components=UTF-8 Maybe this is because WOLips has been updated and is less dependent on something here? I would still be interested in hearing how important this is. Maybe this should be on the woproject-dev list. Tim ___ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

best practices - .settings and version control
All: When working with Eclipse/WOLips and version control what is considered best practice for the proj-dir/.settings/* files?

Re: New WOLips is Coming
Also if project.name is defined in the build.properties, then you don't have to edit the build.xml's that u copy over. Maybe just edit the first one like this for the sake of clarity: I thought the newer builds set project.name for you anyone have an old project and want to test it for me? I upgraded a framework project on Monday. I created a new template project to produce the latest build.xml and woproject files to copy into the old project. After I did that the project would build without a name as .framework. I had to manually edit build.properties to get it to insert the project name. Tim ___ Do not post admin requests to the list.

Re: multiple restricting qualifiers
Thanks Mike. Yeah, I was having a lot of difficulty finding documentation about the syntax for this and I couldn't find any examples where there was 1 qualifier. Another solution in my situation was to create two child entities (with one of the qualifiers each) - which in this particular case actually might represent the intention even better.

SQL Server Driver and Classpath problem
All: I'm stumped. I have a working model and app that accesses a remote db server running SQL Server 2000. This service is being upgraded to SQLServer 2005 so I have test server to, um, test against. The drivers for the old server are embedded in my model and plist containing the data for the connection dictionary is in by the app Resources. This all works great for connecting to the old server. Testing the new server: I am removing the old drivers from my model and embedding the new SQLServer 2005 driver in the model. To do this I'm dropping the jar into Libraries and then selecting Add to Build Path. To remove the old one's I'm using Remove from Build Path and then deleting them from the project. Then, in my app, I change the url for my connection dictionary to the url to connect to the new server -- jdbc:sqlserver://server.ucla.edu:1433;DatabaseName=db Running a query against the connection gives me this error: JDBC connection failed for driver :'com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver'. Driver not found in Java Runtime! I've tried putting the driver everywhere including adding it to the app itself and also /Library/Java/Extensions and /Library/WebObjects/ Extensions -- just to be thorough. When I do make changes in Eclipse the .classpath file looks to be appropriately updated and sqljdbc.jar is always in the build path. I just can't for the life of me figure out why I'm having so much difficulty with this. So, I need help to save my sanity. Tim ___ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

Re: SQL Server Driver and Classpath problem
Peter: That was it. I never would have found that because for SQL Server 2000 I never had to populate a value for driver in my connection dictionary. It always worked just with the url. I don't really understand why that changed or, better, why the adaptor was looking for another driver signature but I am just glad it worked and saved my sanity. Thanks much for your help!!
