Re: Problem with parsing ini files on OSGi for SNAPSHOT build from current git main (what will be 2.0.1)

[Steinar Bang]

I have figured out a fairly simple workaround for this problem:

 1. Remove the "authc = " line from the main section shiro.ini
     [main]
     authc = org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.PassThruAuthenticationFilter
     authc.loginUrl = /login
     shiro.unauthorizedUrl = /unauthorized
    ie. remove the line
     authc = org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.PassThruAuthenticationFilter

 2. Manually create the PassThruAuthenticationFilter and put it into the
    objects map of the WebEnvironment before running init (which parses
    the INI file and creates objects)
     @Activate
     public void activate() {
         var environment = new IniWebEnvironment();
         environment.getObjects().put("authc", new 
PassThruAuthenticationFilter());
         environment.setIni(INI_FILE);
         environment.setServletContext(getServletContext());
         environment.init();

It's early days so I can't tell for sure if this works everywhere. 

But the first app I tried it on came up like with shiro 1.13, so I have
hope I can use the upcoming 2.0.1.

(but best would be to be able to let the INI parser create objects under
OSGi.  Should I create a shiro issue for this?)
