Re: Authentication - passing user info to non-protected match?

[Olivier Billard]

Hi Derek,
The user informations are given by the "auth-protect" action.
So you can't access these infos the same way without using the action.
A workaround is to store these infos in session with the 
SessionPropagatorAction, just after a successfull login.

That's what I'm doing and it works fine.

I know its poissible to pass authentication info
to a protected match:
      <map:match pattern="protected">
        <map:act type="auth-protect">
          <map:parameter name="handler" value="demohandler"/> 
          <map:generate src="docs/protected.xml"/>
          <map:transform src="stylesheets/simple-page2html.xsl">
            <map:parameter name="userID" 
value="{session-context:authentication/authentication/ID}"/>
         </map:transform> 
          <map:serialize/>
        </map:act>
        <!-- something was wrong, redirect to login page -->
        <map:redirect-to uri="login"/>
      </map:match>

But how do I pass the same session-context in a 
normal, unprotected match, this:

      <map:match pattern="unprotected">
          <map:generate src="docs/unprotected.xml"/>
          <map:transform src="stylesheets/simple-page2html.xsl">
            <map:parameter name="userID" 
value="{session-context:authentication/authentication/ID}"/>
         </map:transform> 
          <map:serialize/>
      </map:match>

Does not seem to work?
Thanks
Derek
