How to get a reference to Subject

[berrysx]

I'm in the process of migrating to EJB3.0.

I used to access the Subject in a stateless session bean as follows:

Subject subject = (Subject) ic.lookup("java:comp/env/security/subject");

But in the same bean using EJB3 this code throws:
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: env not bound

My question is how do I get a reference to the Subject?

Thanks

Hi berrysx:

you can use the following to retrieve the subject on ejb3.

Subject subject = (Subject) ic.lookup("java:jaas/<your protection domain>/subject");

where <your protection domain> stands for the protection domain name you've declared login-config.xml

Best regards.
