Seam Security - add a permission to Identity

gersonk Dec 7, 2007 9:30 AM

How can I add a permission to Identity directly?
Let's say 10 users have the same role but one of them must have another permission that doesn't belong to that role. I don't want to create another role.

Thanks

There's currently nothing built into Seam to allow something like this.

What do you suggest while Seam does not have such feature?
Is there some plan to support that in the future?

I'm currently working on some extensions to the security API, one of these will be ACL security which will allow you to assign instance-based permissions to users.

When will be released?
Is there any workaround for the 2.0.0 version? I need this in the current project.

It should be available in CVS sometime next month. The workaround is to extend Identity yourself with the functionality that you need, although I don't imagine that this is trivial.
