from within SEAM? I mean, I'd like to customize the views according to the
roles the user have (e.g. show a given button only to Admins), so I would like
to know any moment what roles the user have, for example. Is there a way to do
this?
The approach I use to employ the JAAS model in JSF is to use the Tomahawk
extensions. Most of their components have a "enabledOnUserRole" and/or
"visibleOnUserRole" attribute. These roles are JAAS roles.
So you could use something like<t:commandLink
visibleOnUserRole="Developer,Administrator" value="yehaa"
action="somethingimportant" />to hide the linke to anybody but users with JAAS
role Developer or Administrator.
For tags which don't have these attributes you could add a mathod like
thispublic Map<String, Boolean> getRoleList();to your User object (the Map has
to be populated somehow with all and the roles the users is assigned to) and
use the standard JSF tags with their "rendered" attribute like
this<h:commandLink rendered="#{loggedInUserObject.roleList['Developer'] or
loggedInUserObject.roleList['Administrator']}" value="yehaa"
action="somethingimportant" />to achieve very much the same as with the
Tomahawk extensions.
Or another option would be to just use the Tomahawk "div" component to wrap it
around tags which do not have role ACL capabilities on their own.
Hope it helps
