Marshalling Into java.util.properties

anil.saldhana Oct 10, 2006 3:10 PM

I tried using the jbxb marshalling into properties in conf/login-config.xml

<policy
 xsi:schemaLocation="urn:jboss:security-config:5.0 resource:security-config_5_0
.xsd"
 xmlns="urn:jboss:security-config:5.0"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

 <application-policy name="TEST">
 <authentication>
 <login-module code="org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule"
 flag="required">
 <module-option name="usersProperties">test-users.properties</module-option>
 <module-option name="rolesProperties">test-roles.properties</module-option>
 <module-option name="password-stacking">useFirstPass</module-option>
 <module-option name="unauthenticatedIdentity">test-user</module-option>
 </login-module>
 </authentication>
 <authorization>
 <policy-module code="org.jboss.security.authorization.modules.JACCAuthorizationModule" flag="required"/>
 </authorization>
 <rolemapping>
 <mapping-module code="org.jboss.security.mapping.providers.PolicyContextIdRoleMappingProvider">
 <module-option name="map" serialDataType="jbxb">
 <java:properties xmlns:java="urn:jboss:java-properties"
 xsi:schemaLocation="urn:jboss:java-properties resource:java-properties_1_0.xsd">
 <java:property>
 <java:key>jacc_principal2role_first_module_web.war</java:key>
 <java:value>props/jacc_principal2role.ear.properties</java:value>
 </java:property>
 </java:properties>
 </module-option>
 </mapping-module>
 </rolemapping>
 </application-policy>

I see that on the setValue to ModuleOption, XB should have picked up the properties object, but it does not:

It is ignoring the java:xxx elements. The JBossEntityResolver did resolve the java-properties_1_0.xsd schema successfully.

Anything obvious?

The elements were ignored because the ObjectModelFactory impl returned null for those elements.

So I have to manually take care of the Properties structure in my impl? I do not get the same help from JBossXB as in ServiceDotXML, I mean the jbxb style attributes?

serialDataType="jbxb" is a feature of the Service Deployment parsing. You are using your own.

The code to do this is really trivial

org.jboss.system.metadata.ServiceJBXBValueMetaData

 // Get the attribute element content in a parsable form
 StringBuffer buffer = ServiceConfigurator.getElementContent(getElement());

 Thread current = Thread.currentThread();
 ClassLoader oldTcl = current.getContextClassLoader();
 ClassLoader cl = valueContext.getClassloader();
 if (cl != null)
 current.setContextClassLoader(cl);
 try
 {
 // Parse the attribute element content
 SchemaBindingResolver resolver = SingletonSchemaResolverFactory.getInstance().getSchemaBindingResolver();
 Unmarshaller unmarshaller = UnmarshallerFactory.newInstance().newUnmarshaller();
 StringReader reader = new StringReader(buffer.toString());
 Object bean = unmarshaller.unmarshal(reader, resolver);
 return bean;
 }
 finally
 {
 if (cl != null)
 current.setContextClassLoader(oldTcl);
 }

In fact, it is really redundant since this code is executed automatically
if you have the namespace registered properly with the schema binding
resolver and you are using the schema unmarshaller
(which is not currently the case for the -service.xml)
