I\'m currently developing a menu for my application that should be able to display only the controllers that the current user can access (requestmap defined in the database).
To check roles in view : Spring security plugin provides ifAllGranted, ifAnyGranted, ifNoneGranted etc., tags to check roles
For example, to check Admin Role of logged in User :
Admin resource
(tested in grails-2.2.2 and springSecurityCorePlugin-1.2.7.3)
