How to set disableUISecurity property - spring

I am trying to apply spring security to my web application. I am already familiar on the usage of the security:authorize tag for hiding UI elements in my jsp page. I read that starting from spring security 3.1.x you now have spring.security.disableUISecurity property to disable the security:authorize tag which will really help our testing. I tried searching google on how to set this property but I couldn't find a clear way on how to set this property. Does anyone know how to configure this property?

I asked this question over at spring forums and someone was able to help me. You just need to add -Dspring.security.disableUISecurity=true as a jvm parameter

Can somebody please explain how Vaadin security works with Spring?

The Spring Security example works and is clear. Vaadin has greatly improved integration with Spring security framework.
On the other side but it is not clear how the example can be modified. I made many attempts but got conflicts and errors.
I read there is no obligation to use the Vaadin Form, very well I would like to use my form, bare HTML generated with a servlet, let's say "my-login-form" endpoint. How can I actually insert it in the shown code so that Spring uses it as a login form and at the same Vaadin manages routes authorization?
Also, I would like to bypass or disable login during a test (without removing the spring-security dependency) and have all routes accessible. How can I do that?
Can anybody kindly provide an example?
I really appreciate any help you can provide.

I found few typos/mistakes in Spring Boot reference guide.
Could you please suggest whom can I contact, or even better how to fix it myself (e.g via pull request if possible) ?
I checked spring GitHub repository but spring-boot-actuator-docs seems to have nothing to do with reference guide.
Thanks in advance.

How to get values on server side in Spring ROO?

I am having a question regarding Spring ROO. Although this is not a good question to ask still as i am facing some issue.
I have created Spring ROO application using below link in Eclipse
http://docs.spring.io/spring-roo/reference/html/beginning.html
After putting some efforts i was able to see the application output as desired then a doubt came to mind that how i will print value from browser to Controller i.e. client to server side (System.out.println("")).
I have tried many solution but nothing seems to be working. So can some one tell me how will i do it.
Just to summarize the thing i want value from textfield etc in my .java file using above Spring ROO project.
Spring Roo just creates a Spring Web MVC application.
In your question I found that you need some architectural concepts about Spring Web MVC and Web applications that you must know to start developing application.
Try to read some tutorials and post (this looks good) before start to develop your application.
Good luck!

Disable Spring Security /login/auth and define everything explicitly?

I'm trying to setup a new project using Spring Security. When you do so every page is auto redirected to /login/auth. I read that you can disable this and instead explicitly state all controllers/routes. can someone point me in the right direction as far as how to obtain this? been searching forever and cant find it.
I first read about it in answer one of this question :
Grails, Spring Security Core - remove /login/auth from application
Reading the section Pessimistic Lockdown in the documentation will lead you to the fact you can reverse this behavior by using the following configuration:
// Config.groovy
grails.plugin.springsecurity.rejectIfNoRule = false
grails.plugin.springsecurity.fii.rejectPublicInvocations = true
This should accomplish what you are after. I recommend reading the documentation for this plugin as it is well written and covers a lot of useful information.
