I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "incorporate user authorization into
selected a 'forward' view mapping." If you want container-managed security,
just add it to your web.xml like so:
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Admin</web-resource-name>
<description>Admin functions</description>
<url-pattern>/admin/*</url-pattern>
<http-method>GET</http-method>
<http-method>POST</http-method>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>admin</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
<user-data-constraint>
<transport-guarantee>NONE</transport-guarantee>
</user-data-constraint>
</security-constraint>
<login-config>
<auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
<form-login-config>
<form-login-page>/security/login.do</form-login-page>
<form-error-page>/security/loginError.do</form-error-page>
</form-login-config>
</login-config>
My login.do maps using tiles to login.jsp, which looks like this:
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld" prefix="html" %>
<p>Please login.</p>
<form action="<html:rewrite page="/j_security_check"/>" method="POST">
<p>Username: <input type="text" name="j_username" size="20"></p>
<p>Password: <input type="password" name="j_password" size="20"></p>
<p><input type="submit" value="Login"/> <html:link
forward="security.forgotPassword">Forgot your password?</html:link></p>
<p>Don't have a login? <html:link
forward="security.register">Register</html:link> to get access to great jobs
or to post your jobs and get great candidates!</p>
</form>
Whenever the user tries to access a protected directory (specified in
web.xml), they are directed to the login page. Once they successfully log in
with a valid username and password, they go to the page they were trying to
access.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
I'm using JBoss241+tomcat323 (and have started looking at struts). From a
JBoss deployment standpoint, the hot deploy should work which will negate
the need to restart the server after a code change during the development
cycle. I'm not yet using JBoss3 so I don't know whether the bug(which it
sounds like it is) has been fixed yet.
By the way, if you are using struts+jboss, could you tell me how to
incorporate user authorization into selecting a 'forward' view
mapping(within an action mapping in struts-config)?
if this is off-topic, can you email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED], or post to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] - thanks!
Joe
