What I am saying is that I want to use Turbine Security but I don't have users in a
relational database and the only
reason UserPeer was invented is because RolePeer can do a join to get the user id,
which it could have got in a
different way than through UserPeer.
For example, UserPeer just had a getId(String username) method, that would have
sufficed.
Thanks.

: Hi UserPeer was created for you to implement it.
: Implement UserPeer to indicate which TABLE and COLUMN are to used by
: TSecuritySystem. for example :
:
: public class YourPeer implements UserPeer
: {
: public static final String USER_ID = YOUR_TABLE.YOUR_ID_COLUMN;
: ...
: }
:
: and you must edit TR.conf to use your UserPeer impl.
