Getting the current user id in cas

Posted on Apr 08, 2008 at 02:57 PM 58 Views

Hi All,

Can anyone help to determine the current user id entered in the portal for login through a composite application service?

Is there any way of getting the IUser object without knowing the unique id?

We are working with CE 7.1

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Srinivasan Subbiah

      If the client (VC, WD4J, etc) that's invoking the CAF service has already authenticated the user, then the user information can be passed to the service via LogonTickets (configured within NWA). Once you do that, you don't need to explicitly "get" the session.

    within CAF or a JEE (EJB project), you can use the below statement to get the userId....

    String userName = context.getCallerPrincipal().getName();
