How to get the principal on a webservice behind JAAS?

Hi,

 

I assume this is certainly a newbie question but i never worked on this pattern before so i'm quite stuck on the question and need some help.

 

Here is the case: i have some JBossWS webservices : they're just some usual classes with annotations like that:

 

@PermitAll

@WebService(targetNamespace="http://www.ws.com/portal", name="portal", serviceName="portal")

@SOAPBinding(style = SOAPBinding.Style.DOCUMENT)

public class WSPortal{

 

They're protected resource by JAAS, with a LDAPLoginModule which works fine for authentication, the trouble is that i didn't find a way to simply get the login of the connected user (or the principal or anything).

I used to work on servlets and this was quite simple to get it with HTTPServletRequest, but here, that doesn't fit :(

 

How am i supposed to get something on the user once i passed through JAAS in a JbossWS webservice class?

Maybe i'm not supposed to authenticate via JAAS, but i have no clue on the matter and i hope someone could help me about it!

 

Thank you very much by advance for your support,

 

SJ.
