Hello Peter, your book is a god send for me.
I do have a question regarding ACLs, I was trying to tie in your ACL configuration with a PostgresSQL schema and spring ROO. I am making some progress and I can see that Voters are being called. I can also see that SecurityContextPersistence gives me correct user in log4j (I also have security context operation within the application, where each object also stores who last modified it, and stores correcty)
But for some reason I cannot use the following code snippet (from Spring ROO, footer.jspx)
I am getting userPrincipal always null, which is not the case in reality.
Please let me know if there is a more appropiate forum for this sort of question.
