Hi,
I'm wondering how I might obtain a handle on the JetspeedUser object
when overriding the getSource() method of the IFramePortlet?
The reason I need this is so that I can grab the logged-in user's
username and password and send that info along with the URL that is
configured via the .xreg file in order to provide BASIC authentication
information automatically to the app running in the IFrame. So....
<portlet-entry name="MyPortlet" hidden="false" type="ref"
parent="IFramePortlet" application="false">
<security role="turbine"/>
<security-ref parent="user-only"/>
<meta-info>
<title>My Portlet</title>
<description>A custom example IFramePortlet</description>
</meta-info>
<classname>com.mycompany.portal.portlets.MyIFramePortlet</classname>
<parameter name="source"
value="https://www.myserver.com/myapp/myservlet";
hidden="false" cachedOnName="true" cachedOnValue="true"/>
<media-type ref="html"/>
<url cachedOnURL="true"/>
<category group="Jetspeed">frames</category>
</portlet-entry>
Then in the overridden getSource() method of MyIFramePortlet, I grab the current
source defined in the config (above). After that I need to, somehow,
access the User object so I can do getUsername() and
getPassword(). It would look something like this...
public String getSource() {
String source = super();
if (source == null) return null;
int index = source.indexOf("https://";);
if (index == -1) {
index = source.indexOf("http://";);
}
if (index != -1) {
String user = runData.getUser().getUserName();
String pass = runData.getUser().getPassword();
String beginStr = configSource.substring(0, index);
String endStr = configSource.substring(index);
StringBuffer buff = new
StringBuffer(user.length()+pass.length()+source.length()+2);
source =
buff.append(beginStr).append(user).append(":").append(pass).append("@").append(endStr).toString();
}
return source;
}
The end result of all this would set the source for the IFrame as
something like...
https://myusername:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/myapp/myservlet
For the above to work, though, I need some way to get the RunData
object or another object which provides access to the User object.
Is there any way to make this work?
