Enrico Olivelli commented on BOOKKEEPER-959: -------------------------------------------- Some points: - Maybe we can change the name of MessageAuthData class to a better 'AuthToken' class - I used the 'extensions' facility in order to support some kind of compatibility with 4.4.0, I am not a protobuf expert...is it necessary ? > ClientAuthProvider and BookieAuthProvider Public API used Protobuf Shaded > classes > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: BOOKKEEPER-959 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BOOKKEEPER-959 > Project: Bookkeeper > Issue Type: Bug > Components: bookkeeper-client, bookkeeper-server > Affects Versions: 4.4.0 > Reporter: Enrico Olivelli > Assignee: Enrico Olivelli > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 4.5.0 > > > With 4.4.0 we introduced the ability to implement custom authentication > plugins. > The new interfaces ClientAuthProvider and BookieAuthProvider depend on > ExtensionRegistry, which is a shaded dependency. > As a consequence it is not possibile to implement any custom auth provider in > code outside the project, because shaded/relocated dependencies cannot be > used. > We need to break the actual interface and introduce a new way to implement > such plugins in a portable way -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
