Hi,
I've been playing around with sample click app that used basic menu and
Tomcat security model. Very impressed and pleased with the speed and
simplicity I've been able to put something useful together, including
the use of PagingDataProvider for large datasets and easy form/navigation.
Now I'm ready to show my employer and I need to take out the security
model so I can put a custom model in place. Having taken out the
security-constraint, login-config and security-role elements from
web.xml I no longer get the menu rendered. I've checked everywhere but
cannot seem to get the menu to render, even though the #if($rootMenu)
condition is true and from debug I can see the menu object in java has
all children etc. The sample does not have security on but doesn't seem
to do anything different, though the menu is shown. Any ideas where I
need to look? I just get blank bar, like the root menu was empty? I've
even given my own AccessController that simply returns true for all
requests, but this is never called.
One other concern is the lack of updated information on main site. It
still states June for v2.3 and the low volume of traffic here and
activity on the project raises the question of whether the framework
will be supported and continue to be evolved. Have the main drivers of
this project moved on? or just busy with every intention to continue
this project?
Great work, take my hat off to those involved, appreciate any help and
comments on above.
thanks...Roy
