hello all
anyway i got the answer but dunno whether or not it is appropriate
i wrapped the jsp snippet to hide it if the user is not logged in as
<authz:authorize ifNotGranted="ROLE_ANONYMOUS">
<div style="float: left; width: 100%; text-align: right;">Welcome
<authz:authentication operation="username" />, <a
href="<c:url value='/logout.jsp'/>">logout</a></div>
</authz:authorize>
To get the logged in user from the action i used :
SecurityContext ctx = SecurityContextHolder.getContext();
if (ctx != null) {
Authentication auth = ctx.getAuthentication();
User loggedInUser = (User) auth.getPrincipal();
}
