Ron,
I have added my own valve to the jetspeed-pipeline inside the file
'jetspeed/WEB-INF/assembly/pipelines.xml'. My valve is being invoked
however, i am unable to read the username and password using the
RequestContext. Secondly, how can i configure so that my valve is invoked
first before any other valves in jetspeed-pipeline. My valve is being
invoked after login.
MyValve code snippet:
========================
public class MyLoginValidationValveImpl extends AbstractValve implements
Valve{
.....
public void invoke(RequestContext request, ValveContext context)
throws PipelineException {
String un = request.getRequest().getParameter(LoginConstants.USERNAME)); //
does not get username
request.getRequestParameter(LoginConstants.USERNAME)); // does not get
username
}
===============================
Existing entries in pipelines.xml:
====================
<bean id='pipeline-map' class='java.util.HashMap'>
<meta key="j2:cat" value="default" />
<constructor-arg>
<map>
<entry key='/portlet'>
<value>portlet-pipeline</value>
</entry>
<entry key='/portal'>
<value>jetspeed-pipeline</value>
</entry>
<entry key='/ajaxapi'>
<value>ajax-pipeline</value>
</entry>
<entry key='/login'>
<value>jetspeed-pipeline</value>
</entry> ..............
=============================
I added my valve 'MyLoginValidationValve' to jetspeed-pipeline in below :
==============================
<bean id="jetspeed-pipeline"
class="org.apache.jetspeed.pipeline.JetspeedPipeline"
init-method="initialize">
<meta key="j2:cat" value="default" />
<constructor-arg>
<value>JetspeedPipeline</value>
</constructor-arg>
<constructor-arg>
<list>
<ref bean="MyLoginValidationValve" />
<ref bean="capabilityValve" />
<ref bean="portalURLValve" />
<ref bean="securityValve" />
<ref bean="localizationValve" />
<ref bean="passwordCredentialValve" />
<ref bean="loginValidationValve" />
<ref bean="profilerValve" />
<ref bean="refreshUserHomepageValve" /> ...........
========================================
Thanks for your time.
