[ome-devel] Bug in SessionManager?

[Swaroop A. Jagadish]

Hi,
We are trying to implement a permissions framework using the OME ACL 
model. It looks like the ACL stuff in the current version of 
SessionManager is broken. To start with, the logged in session doesn't 
have any valid ACL i.e $session->ACL() returns a map with zero entries. 
updateACL() is supposed to fix this. However, it doesn't do that. I added 
a line like the following

$ACLsDiffer = 1 if(not defined $oldACL or (scalar(keys %$oldACL) == 0));

This seems to make it work properly. Please let me know if my 
understanding is right or if I'm missing something.


Thanks,
Swaroop
