String user1=request.getUserPricipal.getName();
It should be String user1=request.getUserPricipal().getName();
Thats why you get the cannot resolve symbol :)

I think you can get the user name by getting the Principal object from
request and then getting the name from it like
String userName = request.getUserPrincipal().getName();

I want to use tomcat user authentication in my application. for that iam using JDBCRealm.I have set the security constraint in the web.xml. So
when a request for the restricted page comes a login page comes.
But the problem is that it is submitting to the j_security_check andthe textboxes are named j_username and j_password respectivley.I want
session mangemant in my application. For that I need the login name of
the person on my each page. How can I pass the username from login page
to my page. is it possible to maintain session using tomcat user
authentication or should i go for my own authentication and session
management.
