Re: URL pattern /admin/*

    Hi,

It could be a solution to map your events (or some of them) to /Common/* in web.xml.
I tested out this solution and it should work but a drawback is that you should have a different path
(or base href) for images stylesheets etc. 
I needed to change in Barracuda source in the 
ApplicationGateway.java handleDefaultExt method:

//figure out the name of the event handler being requested
target = req.getServletPath();

(this won't contain the event name being requested in case of /Common/*)

this should be replaced with

target=req.getRequestUri();

(but this will !!)


BW,

Andras.

  Hi,

  I was wondering if somebody (Sergey) could show me 
  some code that overrides the ApplicationGateway and 
  Also the method of mapping the event classes to 
  url-patterns like "/Common/*"

  I am thinking of overriding the handleDefaultExt() method in 
  ApplicationGateway to check for /Common/*.event and then apply 
  security policies.We have a requirement to implement a  
  Role Based Access Control(hierarchical) authorization scheme 
  using web.xml as well as the Master gateway filtering of roles.
