I'd like to know how to get a full list of roles from Principal as well. I just don't see a way to do it. There's no method for it that I see.
Just a though: If you're authenticating against a JDBC realm (I'm thinking Tomcat here, so forgive me if you're not using Tomcat), you could always getUserPrincipal().getName() and look at up in your role table (assuming you have the necessary priviledges). That's the only thing that comes to mind - sorry :-( Vinh Tran wrote: >I suppose you are right this is related to Tomcat. My apologies, I will >repost there as well.
