Hi Marco,
sorry for the late answer. I was busy in other things.
I don't quite understand your problem. How do you protect your pages and why
you don't do it the same way?
Normally you can just call 'reply.notAuthorized("my realm")' in your
application. What may be helpful is to create a authorization only component,
which is called first. This can be done even in the url mappings. A component
may return DECLINED in case he is not interested to handle the request. You can
do that like this:
<%cpp>
if (!verifyPassword(request.getUsername(), request.getPassword())
{
// Actually "tnt::HttpReply::notAuthorized" throws an exception, so the
return code is never returned. It just looks better to use "return" here.
return reply.notAuthorized("this is my protected webapplication");
}
// the user is authorized here, so we pass the request to the next mapping
return DECLINED;
</%cpp>
And in your tntnet.conf:
MapUrl /.* [EMAIL PROTECTED]
MapUrl /images/((.*).jpg) [EMAIL PROTECTED] $1
Tntnet then calls checkauth first. Either it throws an NotAuthorized-Exception,
in which case the user gets a login box or it returns DECLINED, in which case
your mymultiimagecomponent is called.
