Alessio Soldano commented on WSS-507:
-------------------------------------
Thanks Colm. I see you replaced usage of Collections.emptyEnumeration() with a
static EmptyEnumeration inner class in ThreadLocalSecurityProvider. Is that
because of needing to compile with JDK previous to 1.7 ?
Besides for that, can we have a singleton returned there instead of creating a
new instance of EmptyEnumeration each time (basically, doing the same JDK does
in Collections). Thanks!

> Key: WSS-507
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSS-507
> Project: WSS4J
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: WSS4J Core
> Reporter: Alessio Soldano
> Assignee: Colm O hEigeartaigh
> Fix For: 2.0.2

> Attachments: proposal.diff

>
> This feature request is about adding a mechanism for making WSS4J (and
> possibly other projects relying on it) transparently use a Security Provider
> without globally installing it the JVM. This prevents side effects on other
> frameworks running within the same JVM and not wanting the BouncyCastle
> provider currently registered by WSS4J.
> The idea is to register a provider acting as a proxy to a different and
> thread local scoped provider. The proxied provider reference would have to be
> set and cleaned up by the WSS4J consumers. The reference being thread local
> ensures different threads don't have access to it. When no proxied provider
> is set, the installed provider basically serves no algorithm / service.
