[Building Sakai] Site Participants

[Aaron Zeckoski]

You should use the site service rather than trying to write into the
tables yourself.
http://bugs.sakaiproject.org/confluence/display/BOOT/Using+the+SiteService

If you want to add memeberships you should do something like this:
String userId = getCurrentUserId(); // or some other way of getting the userId
Site site;
try {
    site = siteService.getSite(siteId);
} catch (IdUnusedException e) {
    throw new IllegalArgumentException("Cannot find site by siteId: "
+ siteId +":"+e, e);
}
String roleId = site.getJoinerRole(); // or some other role
site.addMember(userId, roleId, true, false);
try {
    siteService.saveSiteMembership(site);
} catch (IdUnusedException e) {
    throw new IllegalArgumentException("Invalid site: " + site.getId()
+ ":" + e, e);
} catch (PermissionException e) {
    throw new SecurityException("Current user not allowed to update
site memberships in site: " + site.getId() + " :"+e, e);
}

Hope this helps.
