Dan Allen commented on JBSEAM-3629:
-----------------------------------

You could also just disable the filter.

<web:identity-filter disabled="true"/>

But that is not a truly elegant solution, which is why I made the fix that I did.

> Since v2.1.GA, it is not possible to use plain J2EE security.
> Now, httpServletRequest.getUserPrincipal()  always return null and also
> @In
> UserPrincipal principal;
> does not work
> This is  not working because the http request is wrapped in IdentityRequestWrapper (in IdentityFilter) and its getUserPrincipal() method is reading principal variable on Identity component.
> httpServletRequest.getUserPrincipal()  should work when seam security is not use,  and so we should have a way to "disable" Seam security
