Forum Post: Spring security with OE REST

[paul.radbone@wins.co.uk]

Hi, I'm looking at how to handle security for a rest service. Is there a guide for spring security that's specific to OpenEdge? I am new to spring and any examples I can find on the net are for Java. For example you can do the following in java: %@ taglib prefix='sec' uri='http://www.springframework.org/security/tags' % html body sec:authorize ifAnyGranted='ROLE_ADMIN' authorised /sec:authorize REST Adapter /body /html How would you do something similar in OE? I also need to develop a user admin screen, where users can update their own password and other details. Is it possible to use one logon for a progress web app and java web app that have been deployed to the same tomcat server, so that the authorisation is carried across both sessions (if that makes sense)? Any help or pointers to documentation would be much appreciated! Cheers, Paul.
