Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Chris Hyzer <>]

If you want to find all groups a person is a member of starting at a stem 
(including all substems), then try this 1.4 branch method (I believe it was 
introduced around april 13, 2009):

    Set<Group> groups = 
GrouperDAOFactory.getFactory().getGroup().getAllGroupsMembershipSecure("some:stem:%",
 grouperSession, aSubject, Privilege.getAccessPrivs(), null);


If it isn't there or doesn't work let me know.

Thanks,
Chris

Chris, is there a way to do this if the API was used instead of web 
services? Just curious.
