bundle security-domain with a deployment

Hi,

Is it possible to bundle a security-domain descriptor within an application, similar to how you can include the datasource deployment descriptor in WEB-INF/foo-ds.xml? Or some other way?

Cheers,

Dominik

For web based security, the Java EE standardized JASPIC authentication modules can be put within an application. JBoss/WildFly supports these rather well.

Thanks. Even found your blog post about it: Arjan Tijms' Weblog: Implementing container authentication in Java EE with JASPIC

Have to admit that I had never heard of this specification before. Still trying to wrap around on how it relates to JAAS (which is a nightmare to understand, implement custom modules, deploy and so on).

Gonna look into it
