[axis2] User credentials in service
I've been getting acquainted with Rampart and understand a bunch of it
(thanks to Ruchith for his great tutorial).
Now I have a question: How can I access user credentials (either the
signature or a username) in my service?
I'm performing a transaction and need to ensure that I use the identity I've
authenticated in that transaction.
Thanks,
Dave

Dave,
Yes. It looks like we have some inconsistency in getProperties() and
getProperty() methods.
Deepal can you please shed some light on this? What can we expect from
AbstractContext( or MessageContext)#getProperties()?
Thanks,
Ruchith

Ruchith,
You're right. Interestingly, when I call getProperties on MessageContect
(inherited from AbstractContext), it pulls the properties from the context
object (not from the options):
public Map getProperties() {
return properties;
}
The behavior seems inconsistant (I would have expected the two methods to
pull consistant properties) - but I can move on with the getProperty(key)
method you've pointed out.
Best,
Dave

Hi Dave,
Hmm I'm not sure whether the behaviour you explained is possible.
If you look at the getProperty() method on the MessageContext class [1], its
clear that the property fetched from the options instance of the particular
MessageContext instance.
Thanks,
Ruchith

Hi Dave,
Hmm I'm not sure whether the behaviour you explained is possible.
If you look at the getProperty() method on the MessageContext class
[1], its clear that the property fetched from the options instance of
the particular MessageContext instance.

RE: [axis2] User credentials in service

Ruchith,
Thanks.
The odd thing is that in the example you refer to, the RECV_RESULTS vector
comes from the message context properties.
When I run axis, there are no properties in the message context, but if I
get the options (msgCtx.getOptions()) from the message context, I can get
the RECV_RESULTS vector from the
options.getProperty(WSHandlerConstants.RECV_RESULTS).
Is this how it's supposed to behave?
Best,
Dave
