I used to be a long-time user of Acegi Security myself but eventually got fed up with the convoluted and inflexible API, so I started searching for alternatives and the rest is history as they say. > I thought of starting this new T5 app with 5.2-SNAPSHOT, what are the > chances it will work? Your mileage will vary. As Pierce commented, you can use tapestry-security with 5.2 right now but there are a few issues and we are not officially supporting it, whatever that means for an open source project. Specifically, the issue is related to handling annotation-originated security exceptions. It's handled by an advice for an exception handler, and apparently T5.2 doesn't allow you to anymore simply do PageResponseRenderer.renderPageResponse() after you've started processing a different page, but throws "org.apache.tapestry5.ioc.internal.util.TapestryException: The identity of the active page for this request has not yet been established". Makes sense really. Anyhow, it's not a major issue, I'll see if there's a way to do some reinitialization or perhaps more likely, I'll use the handy-dandy tapestry-exceptionpage module for this case as well - even if you start your project right now I'm sure I'll get a new version of tapestry-security out before you are anywhere close to completing your project.
