It is service specific and must be configured in TurbineResource.properties with the <i>service.SecurityService.user.manager</i> property. The UserManager allows access to various properties of an Turbine User object, can change password, authenticate users to the Security service and manages the Turbine user objects. If you have have additional columns in the User (e.g. TurbineUser) table, you get them handled properly (persisting and reading) this way: - create a non default wrapper.class. This class should extend DefaultUserImpl and override or add the required properties. - best practice would be to provide an interface to communicate on same standards between this wrapper.class and the backend ORM-class (e.g generated TurbineTorqueUser class). Otherwise you could use your ORM class. The ORM class is e.g. fetched from the default implementation of the Fulcrum User Manager (org.apache.fulcrum.security.UserManager) (as configured in componentConfiguration.xml userManager->className) and the Turbine User Manager gets it by fetching it first from the Fulcrum User Manager (= umDelegate) and then setting this class as userDelegate in the wrapper class. </p> </section> <section name="Using Fulcrum Security"> <p> The actual implementations for the different Fulcrum services that define the behavior of the security service are configured in the files <code>roleConfiguration.xml</code> and <code>componentConfiguration.xml</code>. All of them can be extended and/or modified to meet your requirements.
