Accessing User Roles from Plugin

[mwanser]

Im using

Code: Select all

securityService.getRolesForUser(currentUser.getLabel())

to get roles for a user but im not getting back the roles i see through the global administration tool. I know there is another version of this

Code: Select all

getRolesForUser(java.lang.String userName,IContextId context)

but im not sure what the context parameter is.

I also know there are global roles and project roles but what im getting back matches neither. How could i get back either version of the roles?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Pretty new to poalrion plugin development so ill take general tips as well

thanks
