[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBPORTAL-2404) WSRP implementation does not executes getUserPrincipal() when the portlet is invoked remotely

Chris Laprun commented on JBPORTAL-2404:
----------------------------------------
This is on purpose. getRemoteUser returns the principal name but I didn't implement
getPrincipal because I didn't want to convey the idea that secure transport of user
authentication was implemented, which would most likely have been the case had
getPrincipal returned anything else other than null. Maybe getPrincipal should throw an
exception to convey that meaning better?

Key: JBPORTAL-2404
URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-2404
Project: JBoss Portal
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Components: Portal WSRP
Affects Versions: 2.7.2 Final
Environment: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5
Reporter: Ricardo Ferreira
Assignee: Chris Laprun
Attachments: JBH.ear
The JBoss Portal implementation does not executes correctly API invocations related to
the principal retrieve from the portlet contêiner. When you executes a local portlet, the
API call "HttpServletRequest.getUserPrincipal()" works fine. But when you
install this same portlet in a remote portlet container using WSRP, the API call returns
"null".
