Seam Authentication with RESTEasy

Hi,

I need to create a REST service to enable users to login into my seam application. does anyone have experience regarding this issue ?

I've created a service as follow but it still wants username and password when I request a secure page

@Name()
@Path()
public class LoginResource {

   @In
   Identity identity;

   @In 
   Credentials credentials;

   @In
   IdentityManager identityManager;

   public void doLogin(@QueryParam("uname") String uname, @QueryParam String pass){
         identity.setusername(uname);
         identity.setpassword(pass);
        //the rest is the same as my Authenticator Bean 
  }


}

This is how we do it:

Identity identity = Identity.instance();
Credentials credentials = identity.getCredentials();

credentials.setUsername(loginName);
credentials.setPassword(password);

String result = identity.login();

if (!identity.isLoggedIn()) {     
     throw new InvalidAccessException();
}

Also, we have @BypassInterceptorsin on almost every class and don't use @In.

I hole this helps.
