The following details a possible integration of Acegi Security with WebWork:-

### Step 1 - Declaring Authz Interface

    import org.acegisecurity.taglibs.velocity.Authz;
    public interface AuthzAware {
            void setAuthz(Authz authz);
    }

### Step 2 - Implementing Authz Interceptor

    import org.acegisecurity.taglibs.velocity.Authz;
    import org.acegisecurity.taglibs.velocity.AuthzImpl;
    import package.api.AuthzAware;

    import com.opensymphony.xwork.ActionInvocation;
    import com.opensymphony.xwork.interceptor.Interceptor;

    public class AuthzInterceptor implements Interceptor {
            public void destroy()
            {}

            public void init()
            {}

            public String intercept(ActionInvocation invocation)
                    throws Exception
            {
                    if (invocation.getAction() instanceof AuthzAware) {
                            Authz authz = new AuthzImpl();

                            AuthzAware authzAware = (AuthzAware)invocation.getAction();
                            authzAware.setAuthz(authz);
                    }

                    return invocation.invoke();
            }
    }

### Step 3 - Making AuthzAware action

    import org.acegisecurity.taglibs.velocity.Authz;
    import package.api.AuthzAware;
    import com.opensymphony.xwork.ActionSupport;

    public class DashboardAction extends ActionSupport implements AuthzAware
    {
            private Authz authz;

            public Authz getAuthz(){
                    return authz;
            }

            public void setAuthz(Authz authz)
            {
                    this.authz = authz;
            }

            public String execute() throws Exception
            {
                    return SUCCESS;
            }
    }

### Step 4 - Declaring interceptor

    <interceptor name="authz" class="package.interceptor.AuthzInterceptor"/>

### Step 5 - Declaring action

    <action name="dashboard" class="package.action.DashboardAction">
            <interceptor-ref name="authz" />
            <result type="velocity" name="success">dashboard.vm</result>
    </action>

### Step 6 - mplementing dashboard.vm

    Actualy you are logged as $authz.principal
