```
protected void initPerson(String principalName)
```
    Loads the Person object from KIM. Factored out for testability.
    
    Parameters:

  - getPrincipalId
```
public String getPrincipalId()
```
    Returns the id of the current user.
    
    Returns:

  - getPrincipalName
```
public String getPrincipalName()
```
    Returns the name of the current user.
    
    Returns:
    
    the principalName of the current user in the system, backdoor principalName if backdoor is set
  - getLoggedInUserPrincipalName
```
public String getLoggedInUserPrincipalName()
```
    Returns who is logged in. If the backdoor is in use, this will return the network id of the person that is standing in as the backdoor user.
    
    Returns:
    
    String
  - getPerson
```
public Person getPerson()
```
    Returns a Person object for the current user.
    
    Returns:
    
    the KualiUser which is the current user in the system, backdoor if backdoor is set
  - getActualPerson
```
public Person getActualPerson()
```
    Returns the actual current user even if the backdoor is in use.
    
    Returns:
    
    the KualiUser which is the current user in the system
  - setBackdoorUser
```
public void setBackdoorUser(String principalName)
```
    override the current user in the system by setting the backdoor networkId, which is useful when dealing with routing or other reasons why you would need to assume an identity in the system
    
    Parameters:
    
    principalName -
  - clearBackdoorUser
```
public void clearBackdoorUser()
```
    clear the backdoor user
  - addObjectWithGeneratedKey
```
public String addObjectWithGeneratedKey(Serializable object,
                                        String keyPrefix)
```
    allows adding an arbitrary object to the session and returns a string key that can be used to later access this object from the session using the retrieveObject method in this class. This allows for a prefix to be placed in front of the incremented key. So if the prefix is "searchResults" and the nextObjectKey (local int that holds the key value) is 2 then the new key will be "searchResults3". "searchResults3" will be returned from the method.
    
    Parameters:
    
    object -
  - addObjectWithGeneratedKey
```
public String addObjectWithGeneratedKey(Object object)
```
    allows adding an arbitrary object to the session and returns a string key that can be used to later access this object from the session using the retrieveObject method in this class. The key is generated from an integer and incremented for every object added. So the first object added with have a key of "1". This key will be returned from the method.
    
    Parameters:
    
    object -
  - addObject

```
public Object retrieveObject(String objectKey)
```
    allows for fetching an object that has been put into the userSession based on the key that would have been returned when adding the object

    Parameters:
    
    objectKey -
  - removeObjectsByPrefix
```
public void removeObjectsByPrefix(String objectKeyPrefix)
```
    allows for removal of an object from session that has been put into the userSession based on a key that starts with the given prefix
  - isBackdoorInUse
```
public boolean isBackdoorInUse()
```
    Returns:
    
    boolean indicating if the backdoor is in use
  - putSessionTicket
```
public String putSessionTicket(SessionTicket ticket)
```
    Adds the given SessionTicket to the objectMap and returns the associated key
    
    Parameters:
    
    ticket - - SessionTicket to add
    
    Returns:
    
    the objectMap key for the ticket as a String
  - getAllSessionTickets
```
public List<SessionTicket> getAllSessionTickets()
```
    Retrieves all SessionTicket instances currently in the UserSession#objectMap
    
    Returns:
    
    List contained in user session
  - getAllSessionTicketsByType
```
public List<SessionTicket> getAllSessionTicketsByType(String ticketTypeName)
```
    Retrieves all SessionTicket instances currently in the UserSession#objectMap that are of a given ticket type
    
    Returns:
    
    List contained in user session
  - hasMatchingSessionTicket
```
public boolean hasMatchingSessionTicket(String ticketTypeName,
                                        Map<String,String> matchContext)
```
    Determines if the UserSession contains a ticket of the given type that matches the given context. To match context the ticket must contain all the same keys at the given context and the values must be equal with the exception of case
    
    Parameters:
    
    ticketTypeName - - Name of the ticket type to match
    
    matchContext - - Map on context parameters to match on
