Hi Matt, 

I am trying to configure struts-menu in my sample applcation but when i am 
using "permissons" attribute as "rolesAdapter" in my jsp, those menu-items 
in menu-config.xml which have no "roles" attribute is shown in browser. 

I have configured my menu-config.xml in WEB-INF directory. Following is 
the content of menu-config.xml: 

<MenuConfig> 
    <Displayers> 
        <Displayer name="ListMenu" 
type="net.sf.navigator.displayer.ListMenuDisplayer"/> 
    </Displayers> 
    <Menus> 
        <!-- ====================   Administrator Menu   
=========================== --> 
        <Menu name="AdminMenu" title="menu.admin" description="Admin Menu" 
roles="admin"> 
            <Item name="am.viewUsers" title="menu.admin.users" 
page="/blank.jsp"/> 
            <Item name="ReloadContext" title="menu.admin.reload" 
page="/blank1.jsp"/> 
        </Menu> 
        <!-- ====================   User Menu   
=========================== --> 
        <Menu name="UserMenu" title="menu.user" description="User Menu" 
page="/blank2.jsp" roles="admin,ROLE_USER"/> 
        <!-- ====================   Upload File Menu   
=========================== --> 
        <Menu name="FileUpload" title="menu.selectFile" description="File 
Upload" page="/blank3.jsp"/> 
    </Menus> 
</MenuConfig> 

Following the content of left.jsp where i am using this menu 
configuration: 
<%@ page language="java" pageEncoding="UTF-8" 
contentType="text/html;charset=utf-8" %> 
<%@ taglib uri="http://struts-menu.sf.net/tag-el" prefix="menu" %> 

<div id="menu"> 
<menu:useMenuDisplayer name="ListMenu" permissions="rolesAdapter"> 
    <menu:displayMenu name="AdminMenu"/> 
    <menu:displayMenu name="UserMenu"/> 
    <menu:displayMenu name="FileUpload"/> 
</menu:useMenuDisplayer> 
</div> 

Following entry i have made in my Applicatiion-Context-Security.xml: 
    <bean id="filterInvocationInterceptor" 
class="net.sf.acegisecurity.intercept.web.FilterSecurityInterceptor"> 
        <property name="authenticationManager"><ref 
local="authenticationManager"/></property> 
        <property name="accessDecisionManager"><ref 
local="accessDecisionManager"/></property> 
         <property name="objectDefinitionSource"> 
            <value> 
                CONVERT_URL_TO_LOWERCASE_BEFORE_COMPARISON 
                PATTERN_TYPE_APACHE_ANT 
                /*.jsp=admin,ROLE_USER 
            </value> 
        </property> 
    </bean> 


In the browser only "FileUpload" menu-items is getting displayed, rest 
menu items are not getting displayed when log-on to applicaton through 
"admin" rights. 

Is there any other configuration required to run struts-menu with Role. 
Where i have to configure "rolesAdapter". I read somewhere that we should 
define this "rolesAdapter" in session or request scope but in Appfuse also 
i didn't seen anywhere this setting but in Appfuse it is working fine. 
I am stuck now please give me your suggestion. 

If you're using Acegi, you have to configure 
a ContextHolderAwareRequestFilter as part of your filterChain bean.  This 
will allow request.isUserInRole() to work.  AppFuse does this and calls it 
remoteUserFilter.

Hope this helps,

Matt
