The individual module docs still need to be uploaded, in the meantime use http://docs.jboss.org/seam/3/latest/reference/en-US/html/pt06.html.

Hello,

thank you very much Shane! I'm totally new to Seam. I was able to use Seam 2 security module + Flex 4 (GraniteDS), but now I would like to try Seam 3 security.

Best Regards,

I don't see in documentation possibility to restrict access to some directories of webapp. It's described in https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SEAMFACES-33 and I think it should be in security module dosc too.

It's implemented as part of the seam-faces module.  There's an example of it here:

https://github.com/seam/faces/blob/master/examples/faces-security

Unfortunately this feature was added as a last minute thing and I don't think it was documented in time before the release.  Basically, you need to create a typesafe security binding (as described here) which you can then apply to your view configuration (Pages.java in the above example).
