[seam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (SEAMFACES-79) Provide <s:restrictView> tag for securing pages

Provide <s:restrictView> tag for securing pages ----------------------------------------------- Key: SEAMFACES-79 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SEAMFACES-79 Project: Seam Faces Issue Type: Feature Request Components: UI Components, View Configuration Affects Versions: 3.0.0.Beta2 Reporter: Dan Allen Fix For: 3.Future Seam 2 had the ability to restrict pages using an EL expression or a permission from security. We have various ways we can provide this functionality in Seam 3. We should at least provide a view metadata tag [1] that coincides with <s:viewAction> to restrict a view. <s:restrictView require="#{identity.loggedIn}"/> <s:restrictView require="modify"/> It's import to ensure that Seam Security remains an optional dependency, just as with the managed-transaction feature. This feature was present in an early prototype of Seam 3, but got dropped. The source is still available for reference. https://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/~raw,r=11746/Seam/modules/faces/trunk/sr... https://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/~raw,r=11746/Seam/modules/faces/trunk/sr... https://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/~raw,r=11746/Seam/modules/faces/trunk/sr... https://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/~raw,r=11746/Seam/modules/faces/trunk/sr...
