[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Problem using security, checkPermission()

[rui.cunha]

I,  i was trying o check the check user permissions to portal pages in order to choose which links to display in a portlet. But i'm getting a little problem.

The code that i use is this:

  | 	MBeanServer mbeanServer = MBeanServerLocator.locateJBoss();
  | 			
  | 	PortalPermissionFactory permissionFactory = (PortalPermissionFactory)MBeanProxy.get(PortalPermissionFactory.class,
  | new ObjectName("portal:service=PortalPermissionFactory"), mbeanServer);
  | boolean asPermission = permissionFactory.checkPermission(PermissionTypes.PORTAL_OBJECT, uri, PortalObjectPermission.VIEW);
  | 

The problem is, if the page permissions is checked as Uncheck, it return true, but if is checked to a role that the current user belongs it returns false.

I also tried the way that is described in the Chapter 5 of the Jboss Portal 2.2, and the result is the same.

I think that the PortalSubject that it uses is not the user that i'm using, for some reason that i can't understand. Do i need to do something before or the portal should know how is the user that is looged in?

I'm using JBoss AS 4.0.3SP1 and Jboss Portal 2.2.

Thanks in advance
