Hi Patricia, Hi tedzo, Because you asked for it: Actually I have implemented support for hierarchical roles in Acegi. It is planned to be included in the Acegi/Spring Security 2.0 release. For a short overview how this will work take a look at http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/spring/secure/attachment/12872/HierarchicalRoles.pdf
My code contribution, user documentation and evolution of this new feature can be found as attachments under http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/spring/browse/SEC-232 Cheers, Michael P. S.: I am currently on holidays and might not be able to check my mails before next Monday. Patricia Guimaraes wrote: "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?
