Hi all,

   i can get user name as follows:

if(Identity.instance().isLoggedIn())
      return Identity.instance().getPrincipal().getName();

my question is that how can I get user Id of logged in user ?

please help me in this regard.

Thanks & Regards,

well there is 2 ways to do this.

1. create an event listener for Identity.EVENT_POST_AUTHENTICATE listener(Identity loggedInIdentity), that will outject to the session scope current user id;

2. another one create a stateless component with  method

User getUser(String username)  {
javax.persistence.Query q = getEntityManager().createQuery("SELECT o FROM User o WHERE o.username = :username";
q.setParameter("username", username);
return (User )q.getSingleResult();
}

and inject it in each Component you require loggedInUser.

I assume that you use JPA users not a LDAP. But with LDAP - it's similar.
