Hi,
about the addDataSource using the Java API, for now you have to disable the security
in order to add the data source using the MapViewer client API.
You can do that editing the MapViewer config file:
<mv_security enforce_sec_role="false" />
Assuming that you have added your data source, and you have rendered some map,
you can get the attribute information using the "identify" methods of the
MapViewer client API.
1) To identify one individual geometry:
String [][] result = mapviewer.identify(dataSource,table_name,columns,
geometry_column,srid, x, y);
where: "columns" contains the table attribute names that
you want to retrieve
     x,y represents the device coordinate.
2) To identify geometries inside a rectangle:
String [][]result = mapviewer.identify(dataSource,table_name,columns,
geometry_column,srid, xlowleft,ylowleft,
xupright,yupright,false);
where the rectangle coordinates are defined by xlowleft,ylowleft,
xuprigth, and yuprigth values in device unit.
3) The resulted String array contains on the first row the attribute
names, and on the remaining rows the attribute values for each geometry.
int nlin = result.length; // return the number of lines
int col = result[0].length; // number of columns
To get the attribute names:
// attribute names
Object []tableattrs = new Object[ncol];
for(int j=0;j<ncol;j++)
tableattrs[j] = result[0][j];
To get the attribute values:
Object [][]tablevalues = new Object[nlin-1][];
for(int lin=1;lin<nlin;lin++)
tablevalues[lin-1] = new Object[ncol];
for(int col=0;col<ncol;col++)
tablevalues[lin-1][col] = result[lin][col];
Regards.
