JDev/ADF sample - Fusion Middleware 11g Security - Retrieve Security Groups from ADF 11g

• Fusion Middleware 11g Security - Retrieve Security Groups from ADF 11g. What to do, when you need to access security information directly from ADF 11g application. If there is a requirement to retrieve security groups or system users from WebLogic Security Provider. Every production system is using some kind of LDAP product to store security groups and system users. From what I saw, in the most of the cases, customers are using Active Directory. WebLogic server is configured with Security Provider to point and consume Active Directory connection, deployed ADF application automatically authenticates against configured Security Provider on WebLogic server. Instead of connecting to LDAP server directly, we can use Oracle Platform Security (OPSS) API and retrieve Security Provider information directly through ADF Security connection.
