Hi all,

We are evaluating ZK to re-write our large software app. Our previous app was written in JAVA EE, Struts, Hibernate, JSP.

I need to know what are the best solutions available to implement flow control and security in ZK. I understand that since ZK is Ajax based, traditional
flow control using page reloads is not ideal.

We require low level security, where a user can be authorized down to the page level and users can be created and assigned authorities.

Any help with resources / best practices would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello!
In our case, we are proficiently using Spring Security for the security and a lightweight internal custom framework for the flow control: a sort of Eclipse RCP metaphor implementation that handles perspectives, folders, views, commands&actions and so on.

Just to scale this: 10+ developers, 5 years project, 100k lines of code of an old JSF+Spring+Hibernate released in 14 different countries successfully refactored in 6 months by 3 developers :)

Thanks for the replies guys. I will look into spring security. As for flow control I am currently trying a small prototype so hopefully that will help me get my head around it.
