SubjectFactory Implementation

anil.saldhana Nov 15, 2010 5:27 AM

For AS5, we introduced a SubjectFactory interface for use by JCA. An issue that is my fault is that the implementation of this interface was done in the security branch of the AS workspace (http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/branches/Branch_5_0/security/src/main/org/jboss/security/integration/JBossSecuritySubjectFactory.java) rather than the external security project. I do not remember why I placed the implementation in the AS workspace.

For AS7, we need to provide the subject factory implementation inside the PicketBox project. We need to make it a security implementation and remove any JBoss Mgmt API, MC dependencies.

JIRA: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/SECURITY-539

I created org.jboss.security.plugins.JBossSecuritySubjectFactory in the jbosssx project and a test case for it.
This class should be included in our next alpha release.

Thanks. I have integrated the release into IronJacamar.

As I spoke to Anil about during the EAP 6 meeting the next important part seen from a JCA PoV is to get the security integration into AS 7 - e.g. the actual configuration of the SubjectFactory.

We can also work on that part in the IronJacamar project if necessary.

Jesper, as we get more familiar with AS7, we will figure out the injection part. You can do the config as part of IJ for now. Once we have the AS7 config done, you can discard from IJ.

As we spoke about last week at the face to face meeting it is more about security domain setup and unification of the security integration across all projects inside AS 7.

Once you are ready share your thoughts on the AS 7 development forum nad we will go from there.
