> Key: JENA-850

> Project: Apache Jena
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Security
> Affects Versions: Jena 2.12.1
> Environment: All
> Reporter: Claude Warren
> Assignee: Claude Warren
> Labels: permissions, security
>
> SecurityEvaluator.getPrincipal() is requried to be used in all other
> SecurityEvaluator methods, however, the return type "Principal" is to
> restrictive for some implementations.
> The Principal is to be retrieved from the Authorization system, and in
> general may be a Principal, but in some cases, as in when integrating with
> Apache Shiro, it needs to be a differnt object type.
> The probable fix is to have getPrincipal() return a generic Object.
