Hi Folks, In my appfuse application, i have a home page that a user sees before going to the login page. Basically, i am required to add a link on the home page menu that directs to the login page. All the other links on the home page menu are also available upon login. But i need to implement the login menu item in such a way that it is available when a user first visits the home page and after a user logs in, it should disappear.
I am having problems implementing this as i have added the following in menu-config.xml: <Menu name="Login" title="menu.login" description="Login" page="/login.jsp" roles="ROLE_ANONYMOUS"/> But the login menu never appears. If i remove the roles attribute, then the menu appears even after login. I suspect its because, struts menu does request.isUserInRole() to check if user has required role but then at this point user is not logged in so the method call returns false. I have also added the following in security.xml: <anonymous granted-authority="ROLE_ANONYMOUS"/> but this dosent seem to have solved the problem. Has anybody ever encountered this? Is there a way i can get Struts menu to also check for annoymous users? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
