I have Spring Security set up to use CasAutheticationProvider to provide a UserDetails object.
I did find an example that uses the SecurityContext to obtain an Authentication object and grab the UserDetails from there. I am not sure how to get access to the populated SecurityContext since SecurityContextHolder.getContext() is returning an empty SecurityContext and I am not sure if that is the best way to access the user. -----Original Message----- From: Wes Wannemacher [mailto:w...@wantii.com] Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2010 5:16 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Getting the authenticated user from Spring Security for use in an Action What mechanism are you using to handle authentication/authorization? -Wes On Tue, Mar 16, 2010 at 5:14 PM, Lance Hill <la...@baldhead.com> wrote: > I need to access information about the currently logged in user.
