There is no way to do this using the servlet API but you could easily store your user and role information in a JDBC user repository and then query that repository for the user data you want. If you need to include the user repository with your webapp, we've used the Hypersonic SQL database.

Hi,
I want to obtain the list of the roles defined in the system from inside
my servlet. I know where the roles are defined, and that I can check
the user name and isUserInRole from the HttpServletRequest class, but I
could not find out a method to list the existing users or roles. Is
there such a method in the servlet API ?
