JAAS Subject not propagating to JCA

[Cory Prowse]

Hi,

I'm failing to get Jackrabbit to see a pre-authenticated Subject when deployed 
as a JCA Resource within Glassfishv3.

My application uses the container to authenticate users, and I can see the 
currently logged in user within an EJB with:
  currentEJBContext.getCallerPrincipal().getName()


Alas, when I ask Jackrabbit for the UserID I always get "anonymous".

This is the method I'm using for obtaining the UserID from Jackrabbit:

public String getUserID() throws LoginException, RepositoryException {
    final Session session = repository.login();
    try {
        return session.getUserID();
    } finally {
        session.logout();
    }
}

My repository.xml contains the following security config:

<Security appName="Jackrabbit">
        <AccessManager 
class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.simple.SimpleAccessManager">
        </AccessManager>

        <LoginModule 
class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.simple.SimpleLoginModule">
                <param name="anonymousId" value="anonymous" />
        </LoginModule>
</Security>

I have traced the code into the RepositoryImpl.extendAuthentication method and 
it seems the AccessControlContext is not propagated to the Jackrabbit JCA.

I'd really appreciate any insight into how to make this work.
