> LoginModulePlugin should not implement getPrincipal method
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-1380
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-1380
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Authentication
> Reporter: Felix Meschberger
> Assignee: Felix Meschberger
> Fix For: Form Based Authentication 1.0.0
>
>
> The LoginModulePlugin.getPrincipal method overrides the
> DefaultLoginModule.getPrincipal method to return a prinicipal for the
> authenticated user. The drawback when overwriting this is, that the
> DefaultLoginModule's implementation actually gets a Principal which is based
> on the Jackrabbit UserManager from the user name encoded in the Credentials
> object as returned by the getUserID(Credentials) method.
> Since the Form Based Authentication uses a SimpleCredentials the
> DefaultLoginModule can cope with this and nothing more is needed.
