[15:12:56 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and completely outside of the scope of the portal
[15:29:31 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> if I do it as a ResourceMapping it tells me it can't find the request parameter i'm looking for, but if I look at the http request going out I can see it defined in the request payload as form-data. not sure whats going on there.
[15:30:00 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[15:30:05 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> that sounds like either a uportal or spring bug
[16:48:26 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> ok I think i have a temporary solution
[16:50:48 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> great 
[16:50:53 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I have to run and catch the bus
[16:51:01 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> heh. have fun.
[16:51:05 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> but I'd love to hear about it tomorrow (or via reading chat logs)
[16:59:42 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> got it working. just had the AttachmentsPorltet inject the request.getRemoteUser() value into the session at application scope then had the mvc controller pull that value. The design was that the service methods would receive the request object and pull the remote user from there so I just created a class that extends HttpServletRequestWrapper and overrides the getRemoteUser method
[17:00:01 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> working great now.
