------------------------------------------
Summary: CDI Event based realm
Key: TOMEE-1487
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE-1487
Project: TomEE
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Jean-Louis MONTEIRO
It's sometimes required to reuse a business logic layer to authenticate a user.
Let's say a JPA set of entities and business logic to connect to a backend.
In order to avoid putting all the app in the container, we created the
LazyRealm (which is also a CDI enabler) so that you can provide the realm in
your webapp.
It's fine, but then, it requires the user to always create a realm wrapper to
which the LazyRealm can delegate to. The wrapper can get business beans and
delegate the authentication.
It could be better to instead have a generic CDI realm firing CDI events so
that the webapp can react and do the authentication.
