Determine all groups for a defined user

I am currently creating a java method(part of and XPages managed bean) to retrieve a list groups a user(not necessarly current user) is a member of.

Is there any easy method to retieve this information or am i going to have to loop through all the groups to check for the user and also check if those groups are sub groups of other groups?

    Simple version is that what you're looking for is...

    lotus.notes.addins.DominoServer server = new lotus.notes.addins.DominoServer("YourCanonicalServerName");
Collection nameList = server.getNamesList("TheUserNameYou'reLookingFor");

    That should be all you need.
