Hi, I would like to implement a user base (using J2EE declarative security) with the following relationship hierarchy :
Users: user = 100, usergroup = 11; UserGroups: usergroup = 10, groupname=agent, parentgroup = 5; usergroup = 11, groupname=privatesupplier, parentgroup = 5; usergroup = 5, groupname=supplier, parentgroup = 1; usergroup = 1, groupname=user, parentgroup=0; This is so that if I say userInRole(supplier) I know I'm dealing with all users in this group as well as all users in all child groups. Or in other words I need to know whether a user is a descendent of a particular ancestor. How could I implement this using principals, roles and rolegroups? I mean how do the three relate?
