Hello guys

I am new in JEE 6 and servlets. I have been trying to learn how to get an instance of a user and show his username roles. I know how to check if a user is in a role. but I couldn't get how to show the username. or at least an instance of itself.

Thank you

How about calling getName() on the Principal object?
