Redeployment of JaasSecurityContext fails

cyberax Nov 30, 2006 2:04 AM

Redeployment of JaasSecurityContext on JBoss4.0.5GA fails because of line JaasSecurityManagerService.java:435:

 // Register the JAAS CallbackHandler JACC PolicyContextHandlers
 CallbackHandlerPolicyContextHandler chandler = new CallbackHandlerPolicyContextHandler();
 PolicyContext.registerHandler(CallbackHandlerPolicyContextHandler.CALLBACK_HANDLER_KEY,
 chandler, false);

The last 'false' parameter means that Java will throw exception during redeployment, because callback handler must be replaced (and this 'false'
parameter forbids replacing).

What is the reason for this setting value?

Its a singleton that is not designed to be redeployed.

Is there any fundamental reason why it is not meant to be redeployed?

I tried to change this parameter to 'true', now JaasSecurityContext can be redeployed but my application throws ClassCastExceptions. I know that this is a classloader issue and I'm planning to investigate and possibly fix it if is possible without huge effort.
