Getting current Subject in Geronimo 2.1

[Pawel B]

Hi

How to get the current subject in Geronimo 2.1? The org.apache.geronimo.security.ContextManager class seems to be not available.

Regards
Pawel

It's always been there when I look.  Where are you trying to access it  
from?

You can also use JACC interfaces

javax
..security
..jacc.PolicyContext.getContext("javax.security.auth.Subject.container");

Thanks David,

The JACC interfaces method works like a charm.
I wasn't precise enough. I'm getting Subject in servlet and I'm using Geronimo embedded in Websphere Application Server Community Edition.
