Add a subject-aware ExecutorService implementation to support Subject execution
on other threads
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: SHIRO-140
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHIRO-140
Project: Shiro
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Subject
Reporter: Les Hazlewood
Assignee: Les Hazlewood
Currently the Subject.associateWith* methods return objects that are associated
with the Subject. Then the caller is expected to dispatch the
callable/runnable to some thread mechanism as they see fit.
It might be nice to simplify this even further for anyone relying on the
ExecutorService API, say by creating a SubjectExecutorService implementation
that:
1) Looks up the currently executing Subject
2) calls subject.associateWith* methods on the callable/runnable argument
3) dispatches the associated callable/runnable to the underlying 'real'
ExecutorService instance.
It reduces Shiro-user code complexity in that they don't need to call the
subject.execute* or subject.associateWith* methods any time they need to
dispatch to another thread.
