As an alternative, your action may implement PrincipalAware
http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/servlet-config-interceptor.html
The advantage of PrincipalAware over the static call above is that it's
easier to unit-test your action outside of the servlet context and it's
clear to other developers that the action requires the principal.

Re: appfuse generated basic struts project how to access the logged in user from action
hello all
anyway i got the answer but dunno whether or not it is appropriate
i wrapped the jsp snippet to hide it if the user is not logged in as
Welcome
, logout
To get the logged in user from the action i used :
SecurityContext ctx = SecurityContextHolder.getContext();
if (ctx != null) {
Authentication auth = ctx.getAuthentication();
User loggedInUser = (User) auth.getPrincipal();
}

appfuse generated basic struts project how to access the logged in user from action
Hello all, I am working on the appfuse generated basic struts 2 project. It uses acegi as a security framework for authentication and authorization. How can i access the logged in user from the action? To show the logged in user in the header.jsp page i used a jstl tag provided by acegi as: Welcome, logout unfortunately this is also shown in login page as Welcome anonymous, logout :) how can i hide that based on whether or not the user is logged in? -- Thanks, Prashant Khanal
