Bug ID: 55559
Summary: UserDatabaseRealm enhacement: may use local JNDI
Product: Tomcat 8
Version: trunk
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: Catalina
Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
Reporter: outsider...@gazeta.pl

Patch
DataSourceRealm may use global or local JNDI registry to look for resources,
but UserDatabaseRealm can use only global resources.
Tomcat has implemented authentication users agains XML file, and I wanted to
use that feature for my application. The problem is that thr file with users
must be registered in global Tomcat configuration file, but I wanted to have
the file managed by application, not a server.
Then I modified a class UserDatabaseRealm in similar manner as DataSourceRealm
is implemented. I also updated a documentation. Class MBeanUtils is modified to
avoid error on shutdown.
Patch is constructed against revision 93bcdde55f62c6598f0dde9de2a575705e6b5abb
(origin/trunk)
I could attach application for patch verification, but it seems to me that only
one attachement is allowed. However, main idea is allow the following
configuration in application META-INF/context.xml file:
<Context>
<Resource name="MyUserDatabase" auth="Container"
type="org.apache.catalina.UserDatabase" description="User database that can
be updated and saved"
factory="org.apache.catalina.users.MemoryUserDatabaseFactory"
pathname="conf/example-users.xml" />
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.UserDatabaseRealm"
resourceName="MyUserDatabase" localDataSource="true"/>
</Context>
