You can get the group membership of a user with a certain role as follows:
Pass the following criteria to the getGroups(Criteria) method of
TurbineSecurityService.
Criteria criteria = new Criteria();
criteria.addJoin(GroupPeer.GROUP_ID, UserGroupRolePeer.GROUP_ID);
criteria.addJoin(UserGroupRolePeer.USER_ID, TurbineUserPeer.USER_ID);
criteria.addJoin(UserGroupRolePeer.ROLE_ID, RolePeer.ROLE_ID);
criteria.add(TurbineUserPeer.USERNAME, user.getUserName());
criteria.add(RolePeer.NAME,role.getName());
GroupSet groups = TurbineSecurit.getGroups(criteria);
