Steve's Guide to Upgrading from Acegi to Spring Security

This document is a guide for upgrading an Education Systems app from Acegi Security to Spring Security, based on the IAP application upgrade. There are two parts, one for the jar-file project upgrade and one for the web app upgrade.

1. Jar File Project Upgrade

By "jar file project " I mean a project that is not a web application - for example, the csf-iap project.

1-A The pom file

1-A-1

Under the "csf-security" dependency, remove the exclusions for Spring Security and add an exclusion for Acegi. The Aegi exclusion looks like this:

<exclusion>
    <artifactId>acegi-security</artifactId>
    <groupId>org.acegisecurity</groupId>
</exclusion>
