Is onActivate a robust place for authentication?

I'm not sure yet how to integrate ACEGI, but I can look at an ASO in
onActivate for a page.  Is returning a page name from onActivate() a
robust solution for basic user authentication?

Yeah, that's how I'm doing this now.  Having a Tapestry annotation
like @Secure that invokes your pipeline contribution sounds the most
solid.

For the meantime, an "activate" event handler method (in a base class) is
how I've envisioned authentication.

However, I want to open up a kind of pipeline between the Dispatcher and the
PageLinkHandler that can be injected, so that you can do this kind of
operation across the entire application.

I think what you are looking for is interface PageValidateListener

http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry4.1/apidocs/org/apache/tapestry/event/PageValidateListener.html

it's thought just for this kind of things afaik.

I bill

I'm interested by the answer too...

Where can we put redirect to login form (for exmple) if the user has
not logged in ?
