------------------------------------
Summary: Mark AbstractLoginModule and Authentication as provider
types
Key: OAK-6035
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-6035
Project: Jackrabbit Oak
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: security
Affects Versions: 1.7.0, 1.8
Reporter: Robert Munteanu
With OAK-5903 the {{AbstractLoginModule}} and {{Authentication}} interfaces
received new methods and the exported package version was bumped from 1.1.0 to
2..0.0. This is unfortunately a breaking change for anyone importing the
{{org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.spi.security.authentication}}, including Sling's
oak-server module.
To me these classes do not look as they are usually implemented by clients, but
part of an SPI implemented mostly by oak-core, e.g. they are 'provider types'
in OSGi vocabulary.
I've marked them with the {{@ProviderType}} annotation which allows the
exported package version to only be increased to 1.2.0 and allows consumer to
reference those packages without changing import ranges across all Oak version.
