Hi Shi,

I am *very* interested in finding out how I can set up Acegi Security to 
support a role hierarchy.  You mentioned in #1 below that Acegi Security 
can be configured to do that.  Could you point me in the right direction 
by letting me know which documentation I can read to configure my 
application that way?  Do you know of any sample applications demostrating 
this functionality?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Pat

Re: [Acegisecurity-developer] Can acegi do these?






hi, tedzo
 
1. yes, but you need to configure it yourself
 
2. take a look at Acegi Reference chapter 20.4
 
3. Acegi protect method (for example, methods related to your assets) and 
domain object, take a look at chapter 21, 22 as well as 
acegi-security-sample-contacts

Hello,
I am trying to figure if acegi is the right framework to use for our 
requirements. Some of our requirements are as follows -

1. Allow me to define roles that are specific to my application AND that 
are hierarchical. For example, ROLE_VIEWER, ROLE_WRITER, ROLE_CREATOR, 
ROLE_SUPER where VIEWER can only view, WRITER can view AND write, CREATOR 
can view, write AND create and SUPER can do everything including delete. 
Can I define such a hierarchy? Will acegi automatically handle the 
hierarchy for me? 
2. It seems that acegi handles access to web pages in as a whole, meaning, 
I can authorize (or not) a user attempting to view somepage.jsp, for 
example. However, lets say sompage.jsp contains a visual element, say a 
button, that needs to be displayed (or enabled) only to users with CREATOR 
and SUPER roles. Can I implement such a mechanism with acegi? Basically 
that would mean I should be able to provide a user's credentials and 
required access right for a given asset and acegi has to respond with a 
yes/no response of s some sort. 
3. Can acegi provide me with a list of all protected assets (say files) 
that a user has access to? Meaning, lets say I have files that need to be 
protected such that some may be handled by a user with VIEWER role while 
others require user to have other roles. A user with WRITER role logs in 
and I want to present a list assets available for him/her to handle. Can I 
somehow query acegi for such a list? 


Thank you for your time.
