在grails中禁用默认的可搜索控制器

Question

Is there a way to disable controller which is a part of some plugin (Searchable in my case) in Grails? The only two ways I can think of are pointing it to 404 page in UrlMappings [1] or writing filter for the same thing. However this seems to me more like a workaround that a proper solution. Also at least in case of Searchable plugin the need to get rid of default controller and view seems quite common to me as they are both basically useless.

If you are using spring spring-security-core , than it will be very easy to restrict the controllers.

You just need to place the following code in config.groovy

grails.plugins.springsecurity.rejectIfNoRule = true     //Deny all urls by default
grails.plugins.springsecurity.securityConfigType = SecurityConfigType.InterceptUrlMap
grails.plugins.springsecurity.interceptUrlMap = [
/** Start IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY block **/
    '/about/**':        ['IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY']
        ,'/':               ['IS_AUTHENTICATED_REMEMBERED'] ]

Controllers which are mentioned in the interceptUrlMap block are accessible.
