In a web-app I have a JDBCRealm and most requests are secure (requiring a logon).
I would like to create a User bean that contains the users first and last name, both of which are stored in the DB table along with the username and password. I would like to create this User bean when the user logs on and add it to the session, but I cannot find a convenitent way to do it. Using <jsp:useBean> would require a default constructor, but even if I wanted that, I can't get the request and hence the logged in user. I looked at HttpSessionListener, but that doesn't seem to have any way to get the logged in user either. Ideally I would like to use something that is container independant, but I could go with something like a filter if that is the only way. Am I missing something blindingly obvious?
