Userid in JSR168 portlet
|

| Neville Harrison 2005-03-23, 6:11 pm |
| I need to retrieve the userid from Portal (V5.1 with Domino LDAP,
security is enabled) to pass to a web service. JSR168 does not seem to
offer that user attribute and request.getRemoteUser() or
getUserPrincipal() only gives me the LDAP "short name". This value is
not necessarily unique across our LDAP registry.
I can do it with the IBM Portlet API (from the User object). No such
luck with JSR 168.
Any idea?
Thankyou,
Neville

There is a table of supported user attributes that are available for JSR 168 portlets in WPS.

Thanks very much. As, I guess, you are pointing out, the userid isn't
one of them. I have had to revert to the IBM Portlet API to get this
job done and am retrieving the users LDAP DN from the User object.
