How to get current caller/principal in JMX mbean

[lcheng_nj]

Hi, all

  I have one case which works on JBoss4.2

  1. Client login (with JAAS, ClientLoginModule)

  2. Client get JMX connection from JBoss JMX server

  3. Client call mbean API; Server will check current caller/principal is, whether he/she has the enough privilege to do the action.

  Now with Wildfly 9, we do the similar thing, moreover, we have set the username/password when getting JMX connection

  //urlString likes:service:jmx:remote://localhost:9999

    JMXServiceURL serviceURL = new JMXServiceURL(urlString);

        Map<String, Object> env = new HashMap<String, Object>();

        String[] creds = new String[2];

        creds[0] = username_;

        creds[1] = password_;

        env.put(JMXConnector.CREDENTIALS, creds);

        JMXConnector jmxConnector = JMXConnectorFactory.connect(serviceURL, env);

        MBeanServerConnection connection = jmxConnector.getMBeanServerConnection();

however, at step3, JMX server find current caller/principal is null.  Do you know why? Or how to resolve this.
