Problem using identity roles

[pdhaigh]

Hi,

I have having an issues using identity roles. I have previously used this:

<restrict>#{!s:hasRole('participant')}</restrict>

With no issues, but on my current development (using Seam 2.0.0.GA), this is not working. I did some investigtation, and tried the following in my authenticate method:

identity.addRole("test");
log.info("Identity role #0: #1","test", identity.hasRole("test"));

Which produced

[...security.Authenticator] Identity role test: false

What could I be missing?

Identity.addRole() doesn't work like that. I suggest you read the security chapter of the reference docs, there's a section describing how addRole() works, along with a diagram.
