Hi ,
with isUserInRole you can check whether the the current remote User has the
role you specified.
There is also an method
//check authentication assuming that user needs the role "editor" for the
action
if (!request.isUserInRole("editor")) {
throw new Exception("user not authenticated for this action");
}
I have defined the roles in tomcat-users.xml as I am using this basic
scheme.
