             Summary: Drop userId field in TokenLoginModule
                 Key: OAK-8316
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-8316
             Project: Jackrabbit Oak
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core, security
            Reporter: angela


{{TokenLoginModule.login}} contains the following code that may set the 
{{userId}} field:

{code}
[...]
            TokenCredentials tc = (TokenCredentials) credentials;
            TokenAuthentication authentication = new 
TokenAuthentication(tokenProvider);
            if (authentication.authenticate(tc)) {
                tokenCredentials = tc;
                tokenInfo = authentication.getTokenInfo();
                userId = authentication.getUserId();
                [...]
           }
{code}

however, {{TokenAuthentication.getUserId()}} will just delegate to 
{{TokenInfo.getUserId}} and setting the {{userId}} in the login module is IMO 
redundant. Also, upon commit the {{AuthInfo}} is ultimately populated with the 
ID retrieved from the {{TokenInfo}} and the userId field is ignored.

I would therefore suggest to drop the extra {{userId}} field and simplify the 
code accordingly. [~stillalex], will attach a proposed patch later today.
