If you don't have instance-level security, the following simpler form will suffice: <h:commandButton value="Self Destruct" action="#{machine.selfDestruct}" rendered="#{s:hasPermission('machine','selfDestruct')}"/> And if all you have is role-based security, the following is even simpler: <h:commandButton value="Self Destruct" action="#{machine.selfDestruct}" rendered="#{s:hasRole('hero')}"/> View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4009171#...
