I'm using Shiro 1.1 and I've implemented my own realm to be able to delegate authentication to a legacy application.
I have extended "AuthorizingRealm" and my "doGetAuthenticationInfo" method returns a "SimpleAuthenticationInfo" containing the user and the password. To check who is logged in I call * Subject currentUser = SecurityUtils.getSubject();* >From the subject I can found out who is logged in by calling: * currentUser.getPrincipal().toString()* This gives me the login name. I'm not sure if this is how I should do it but it seems to work fine. However, I also want to retrieve a clear text name for the currently logged in user. I get this information from our legacy application and I'd like to present it in our web application. How can I do this? I assume that what is returned from my "doGetAuthenticationInfo" method somehow is stored in the subject. I guess that I could then subclass "SimpleAuthenticationInfo" and add my extra information. But how can I retrieve it from the subject? Best regards, /Bengt
