Thanx Mike i've now got that working and talking to the webservice. Woohoo - i'm thinknig that was the easy part compared to what i now have to do. I have to use an 'authenticAccount' method on the webservice to authentic the user which simply takes the username & password and returns me true or false depending if the attempt was successful . How the hell to i get this to work with the acegisecurity authenticationManager used in appfuse. Is this possible? I've no idea how to go about doing this :(
Let me make sure I understand your requirements: you need each user to authenticate individually with the web service? As in user makes request, server authenticates with webservice on user behalf per request? You can obtain the user object from the current security context easily enough, but the passwords used in AppFuse are stored using a one way hash. So they are unlikely to be able to be used as is with your web service. I would suggest you take a look at the following classes to get an idea of what needs to be done (you should be able to open the source in your ide, or download the sources from http://static.appfuse.org/repository and attach as needed): UserSecurityAdvice (how to get hold of the current security context) and UserFormController (how to encrypt passwords). Mike. Any help would be greatful
