Re: How to implement admin features/sections in app

Hi guys, and thanks for the answers.

So it seems the answers you have given are two-fold. I hadn't really got to thinking about securing the server yet as I am just building a prototype and still learning as I go. However, now seems as good a time as any to secure the RPC calls. Would something as simple as this do the trick, inside the function in the ProgServiceImpl:

if(loginInfo.isAdminUser())
{
// perform RPC call as usual and return
}
else
{
throw UserNotAdminException("blah");
}

On to the client code... Craig, are you saying that it is best to have all of the admin and regular controls in the uibinder template, and then hide things if the user is not an admin? This seems illogical to me, as most users are not admins so they are downloading code that they will never see? Am I missing something? Is this where deferred binding comes in?

Thanks again for you help. I'll get securing those RPC methods!

Drew
