How to remove the case sensitive of the login?

[nur]

Hi.

I have implement standard seam authentification and my login is case sensitive.:

/** name. */
@NotNull
@UserPrincipal // user principal permet de definir le "login" .
private String userName;
 
/** password. */
@NotNull
@UserPassword(hash = "MD5") // définit ce champ comme étant le mot de passe.
private String passwordHash;

and same stuff in xhtml:

  <h:form id="login"> 
    <rich:panel>  
    <f:facet name="header">Login</f:facet> 
    <p>Veuillez vous identifier.</p>  
     <div class="dialog">  
       <h:panelGrid columns="2" rowClasses="prop" columnClasses="name,value"> 
          <h:outputLabel for="username">Nom d'utilisateur:</h:outputLabel>  
          <h:inputText id="username" value="#{credentials.username}"/>  
          <h:outputLabel for="password">Password</h:outputLabel>  
          <h:inputSecret id="password" value="#{credentials.password}"/>  
       </h:panelGrid>  
     </div>  
   </rich:panel> 
   <div class="actionButtons">  
      <h:commandButton value="Login" action="#{identity.login}"/>  
   </div>  
   </h:form> 

I can login me with user jean but i can't with JEAN or Jean

Hmm, interesting topic. If I look at the source code of class org.jboss.seam.security.Credentials I would install my own Crendentials component.

The custom Credentials component would look like this:

@Name("org.jboss.seam.security.credentials")
@Scope(ScopeType.SESSION)
@Install(Install.APPLICATION)
@BypassInterceptors
public class CustomCredentials extends Credentials {
    @Override
    public void setUsername(String username) {
        super.setUsername(username == null ? null : username.toLowerCase());
    }
}

I don't know if this is the best solution, but it should work. Hope that helps!
