not sure if this helps you but i have a myBaseAction class as follows:
package nl.topticketline.topnet.util;
import org.acegisecurity.Authentication;
import org.acegisecurity.context.SecurityContextHolder;
import org.acegisecurity.userdetails.UserDetails;
import org.appfuse.model.Role;
import org.appfuse.model.User;
import org.appfuse.webapp.action.BaseAction;
/**
* This can be extended by action classes instead of the BaseAction.

*/
public abstract class MyBaseAction extends BaseAction {
public static final String AJAX = "AJAX";
/**
* 1 will be true other values will be false.
*/
public boolean getValueAsBoolean(String booleanStr) {
if ("1".equals(booleanStr)) {
return true;
}
return false;
}
/**
* Will return the userName as string from the logged in user.
*
* @return
*/
public String getLoggedInUserName() {
if (SecurityContextHolder.getContext() != null) {
Authentication auth =
SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication();
if (auth != null) {
Object obj = auth.getPrincipal();
log.debug("object:" + obj);
if (obj != null) {
if (obj instanceof UserDetails) {
return ((UserDetails) obj).getUsername();
} else {
return (String) obj;
}
}
}
}
return null;
}
/**

*/
public User getLoggedInUser() {
String userName = getLoggedInUserName();
if (userName == null) {
log.warn("userName is null");
return null;
}
log.debug("getting user:" + userName);
if (userManager == null) {
return null;
}
return userManager.getUserByUsername(userName);
}
/**
* checks if the logged in user has the role provided.
*

* @return
*/
public boolean loggedInUserHasRole(String roleName) {
if (roleName == null || roleName.length() == 0 ||
getLoggedInUser() == null) {
log.warn("roleName is not set right or there is no user found");
return false;
}
for (Role role : getLoggedInUser().getRoles()) {
if (roleName.equals(role.getName())) {
