Renaming a user
I have a minor issue with Turbine security. I can't rename a user; when I
go:
User user = TurbineSecurity.getUser(oldLoginName);
user.setName(newLoginName);
TurbineSecurity.saveUser(user);
I get an org.apache.turbine.util.security.UnknownEntityException: Unknown
user 'newLoginName'
Is there any workaround (other than creating a new user object, copying all
the properties/groups/roles individually, saving this user, and deleting the
old user)?
Thanks,
David Demner

Gerry Duprey is working on a step by step howto for Turbine 2.3 and Fulcrum
Security, see his thread "Turbine, Fulcrum & Security".
If you email him directly he may have something he can share..

One way to do it is to define your own class of TurbineUser which will
allow you to make all the changes you want in the database records.
However, be careful in your code when you rename an user which is loged in.
Not a very academic solution but it may help you
