Hi, Carlos!
I haven't tested it, but why is not possible to use both?
I haven't tested this either. Probably you could create groups as well as
roles but can't use both for authentication/authorization... Well, I'm just
guessing, probably the
org.apache.slide.security.ACLSecurityImpl
class can provide more insight into the matter...
The reason I asked is because we need a feature present in
some CMS or PDM systems in which users take a role on login.
For the duration of that session the user only belongs to
that one role. So I was thinking that groups could be used
for static groupings and roles for this type of dynamic
grouping. As far as configuration, a user belongs to one or
more groups and one or more roles. But the list of roles are
only the list of allowed roles, only one (or maybe a set) is
taken on a particular session.
I see. Couldn't you use different "types" of roles if groups and roles
really can't be used together?
I guess so since anyway I will have to modify Slide myself to support
this;-) I like the idea of having groups and roles. The terms seems to
have meanings close to what we intent them for.
