Hello When developing Java applications that make use of MMBase it is often required to get cloud instances. The standard MMBase way of getting a cloud instance is to provide credentials (for example user name / password). While that method is well suited when user interaction is possible, it poses problems when the actor acquiring the cloud is a Java class because the class then needs to store the credentials somewhere. I usually write a CloudProvider that addresses this problem by delegating the repetitive task of getting the credentials and acquiring a cloud.
I am sure more implementation are laying around. did anybody write a usable/pluggable implementation (that might use the class security)? Does anybody want to share their experience with this problem? greetings _______________________________________________ Developers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.mmbase.org/mailman/listinfo/developers
