I have a Java application and a GAE application that sends C2DM messages to Android devices.
Now I want users of the java application to be able to log in through their Google accounts to the GAE application. Is it right that I have to use oauth to figure this out?

I hope my wonderful ASCII image makes it easier to understand;)
Somehow I need to allow the user to enter the Java application with their google credentials, and if I send a message to the server, the user data will be sent with the message to the server.
I have no idea how to do this. It would be great if you could tell me that I am on the right or wrong path. I would be very happy for any suggestions.
