After a user logs in to Cognos through SDK how to retreive the logged in users Group and roles?

The following code lists groups and roles for the current logon with associated permissions.

      PropEnum[] props = new PropEnum[] {PropEnum.searchPath,
            PropEnum.defaultName,
            PropEnum.userName,
            PropEnum.policies,
            PropEnum.permissions,
            PropEnum.notificationEMail} ;
      Account acct = null ;
      try {
         BaseClass bc[] = cmService.query(
            new SearchPathMultipleObject("~"),
            props, new Sort[] {}, new QueryOptions() ) ;
         if (bc!=null && bc.length>0)
            acct = (Account)bc[0] ;
      }
      catch (java.rmi.RemoteException e) {
         log.error(e) ;
      }
        for (int j = 0; j < acct.getPolicies().getValue().length; j++) {
         Policy pol = acct.getPolicies().getValue()[j];
         log.info(pol.getSecurityObject().getSearchPath().getValue()) ;
         Permission[] perm = pol.getPermissions();
         for (int k = 0; k < perm.length; k++) {         
            log.info(perm[k].getName()) ;
         }         
      }
