security-constraint question

[Giselle Dazzi]

Hi everybody,
Im using the <security-constraint> feature of Tomcat. Everything works well, but I dont know how to retrieve the login entered during authentication to use it throughout my application... Have you guys done this before ?
thx
My login page is specified in my web.xml:

 
<login-config>
      <auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
      <realm-name>Autenticacao</realm-name>
      <form-login-config>
        <form-login-page>/login.jsp</form-login-page>
        <form-error-page>/errorpage.html</form-error-page>
      </form-login-config>
    </login-config>

There are a number of methods on the HttpServletRequest object.

isUserInRole()
getUserPrincipal()
getRemoteUser()


Do those help?
