I am presuming that the host is necessary as some identifying
information about the user?
You need to store the host information in the PrincipalCollection. So:
public class HostInfo {
String hostname;
}
Create this object in doGetAuthenticationInfo, and add it to the
PrincipalCollection in the returned AuthenticationInfo.
Then, in doGetAuthorizationInfo, you simply need to call:
principals.oneByType(HostInfo.class).hostname
Of course, make the HostInfo class prettier (constructors, getters, what
have you). It might take a little bit more effort to create the
AuthenticationInfo in the first place (I believe you will have to create
your own PrincipalCollection object) but without seeing your current
code I can't tell you much more than that.
Let me know if that makes sense.
