edu.yale.its.tp.cas.client.filter.wrapRequest isn't actually a
class. It's simply a string value within a Map that represents
either true or false.
You can get the user ID several ways. The easiest is from within a
function that is receiving a RenderRequest, you can call it's
"getRemoteUser()" method to get the user ID. I believe the
RenderRequest's getPortletContext().getPortletSession().getAttribute
(CASFilter.CAS_FILTER_USER) should also work (assuming you include
the CAS Client jar via "import
edu.yale.its.tp.cas.client.filter.CASFilter" in your class), but
that's specific to CAS. The former is more generic.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong...

Hi,
I have casified my uPortal to use CAS3.0 . I am successful pointing
CAS to the database and then authenticating the user credentials
via database.
Now, how can the portlet application inside the portal get the
username.
From http://tp.its.yale.edu/pipermail/cas/2006-October/
003541.html , I noticed that we can give
<!-- expose REMOTE_USER (from CAS Client version 2.1.0) -->
<init-param>
<param-name>edu.yale.its.tp.cas.client.filter.wrapRequest</param-name>
<param-value>true</param-value>
</init-param>
in the client web.xml . But when I take a look at the classes I
have in my cas-client.jar, I couldn't find
'edu.yale.its.tp.cas.client.filter.wrapRequest' class.
Do I have to access username like this or is there any way that I
can get the username to the portlet from my uPortal.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Asha
