Re: DHIS2 - Struts2 - Spring Security2

 

Delighted to see progress on this.

One thing that I've encountered (and which should become a blueprint), is
that you would like to automatically generate users who only have access to
subtrees (at a certain level).

The concrete example is that you have all the countries in the world
(grouped into regions), and would like to have a user for each country who
should not have access to data for any other contry. With 200 countries, you
don't want to do this manually...
