Michael Lipp updated JS2-300:
-----------------------------

    Attachment: JBossLoginModule.patch

> Request to make login modules more flexible
> -------------------------------------------
>
>          Key: JS2-300
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-300
>      Project: Jetspeed 2
>         Type: Improvement
>  Environment: JBoss/HSQLDB
>     Reporter: Michael Lipp
>  Attachments: DefaultLoginModule.patch, JBossLoginModule.patch
>
> In order to proceed with JS2-297, I'd like to see the attached patch (against 
> M3) applied. It allows a UserManager to be passed to DefaultLoginModule and 
> JBossLoginModule.
> As described in JS2-297, my goal is to make the user/group/role components of 
> Jetspeed available as a JetspeedSecurityService MBean (i.e. as "application 
> server extensions"). This MBean can then provide a UserManager. A login 
> module based on this service would obtain the MBean, get the UserManager and 
> use it in its login module (quite straight-forward). The current 
> implementation of DefaultLoginModule "insists" on obtaining the UserManager 
> via a LoginModuleProxy that is instantiated for the single purpose of holding 
> a static reference to the UserManager (this is marked as a hack in the 
> comment, and rightly so). While I can, of course, keep instantiating a 
> LoginProxy, there is really no reason for doing this. And of course, I'd like 
> to avoid duplicating DefaultLoginModule and JBossLoginModule.
