i am using Springs DelegatingVariableResolver to make my Spring beans accessible from JSF layer . Thats exactly how i am passing user session object ( i.e. user Id and user Roles ) as argument to business method in Spring.
I am able to retrieve this user session object & its attributes into Base bean of Spring Layer but the subclasses of Base bean are not able to get the same value as in Base bean even though i declare them as protected <variable_name> When i reached this point, i started rethinking on my design whether its good way to pass HttpSession object as argument to business method in Spring OR Should i use Servlet Filters but again how to access it in business Layer as Spring doesnt provide any handle to HttpServletRequest in business Layer. The other issue was ThreadLocal Finally when i ran out of options i posted on Forums to see how other people are doing Regards Bansi Nebinger, David wrote: > >> Thanks Everyone for providing valuable suggestions We >> usein-house Security system which gives employee Id and >> Roles on successful authentication.
