Hi,
Perhaps you're looking for the method RoleManager.isUserInRole(username,
roleFullPathName)?
The role manager can be found similarly to the page manager, with
CPS_ROLE_MANAGER_COMPONENT.

I am trying to change the portlet security on some portlets by creating
a new security constraint definition and associating it with a portlet
definition.
The updatePageSecurity method (*** below) throws the unchecked exception
SecurityException. I assume the reason for this is to force the code to
first check if a user has "admin" permissions.
My question is how can I validate that the user trying to set this
security constraint has permission to do it beforehand?
This is the code I have, exception thrown on ***
PageManager pageManager = (PageManager)
portletContext.getAttribute(CommonPortletServices.CPS_PAGE_MANAGER_COMPO
NENT);
PageSecurity pageSecurity = pageManager.getPageSecurity();
SecurityConstraintsDef def = pageManager.newSecurityConstraintsDef();
(set some attributes in def like constraint name, roles, permissions)
pageSecurity.getSecurityConstraintsDefs().add(def);
pageSecurity.setSecurityConstraintsDefs(pageSecurity.getSecurityConstrai
ntsDefs());
*** pageManager.updatePageSecurity(pageSecurity); ***
(get the portlet definition and call setJetspeedSecurityConstraint with
the constraint name from above)
Thanks.
