Re: servlet context or session object from store

[Mike Oliver]

I see so your custom store implements SecurityStore as well as NodeStore 
and ContentStore  and "principal" is a member variable?

I'm not the security expert in our group, but I can describe how we
access the principal: We wrote a SecurtiyStore which implements
connect like this:
   public synchronized void connect(CredentialsToken credentialsToken)
      throws ServiceConnectionFailedException 
   {
       Store store;
       
       if (isConnected()) {
           // Slide issues multiple connect call for the same store in
the same
           // thread. We process only the first
           return;
       }
       if (credentialsToken != null) {
           principal = credentialsToken.getPrincipal();
       } else {
           // no suitable credentials to connect -- do nothing
       }

       [store principal "ThreadLocal"]
   }
Principal has to be stored "ThreadLocal" because there are different
credentialsTokens for different requests ...

Gents,

I could use a hand, I cannot find a way to get at the servlet context
or 
session object to get user information from my custom store  I am 
extending the AbstractTxFileStoreService.

I have already looked at all (or at least I think I have) the
properties 
and methods of all the complex objects passed to all the methods and I
cannot see any sort of method or reference to get at this info....but
it 
is illogical to me that the Store doesn't know who the user is, so I 
know I am missing something.

Please point me in the right direction!
