Category: core Group: 1.2 Status: Open Priority: 5 Submitted By: Igor Vaynberg (ivaynberg) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: time for IAuthenticationStrategy Initial Comment: is it time we created an authentication strategy? we have a pretty good authorization strategy so now we need to fill the gap. the only thing i can think off is a simple interface like this IAuthenticationStrategy { boolean allowPageInstantiation(Clazz page); } dont know if this can really be called authentication strategy since it really has no authentication-specific methods in it... but we have to start somewhere so it might look like this: MyStrategy implements IAuthenticationStrategy { boolean allowPageInstantiation(Clazz page) { if (page instanceof LoginPage.class) { return true; } else if (page instanceof SecurePage) { if (!session.isloggedin()) { RequestCycle.get().setImmediateResponsePage(LoginPage.class); } return true; } } i think that will cover most usecases and the impl can be pluggable. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=684978&aid=1408679&group_id=119783 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
