Re: [equinox-dev] Equinox/Eclipse RCP JAAS integration/sample

[Oleg Besedin <obesedin@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Marcelo,
That page seems to be quite outdated
and probably is not a good starting point. There is some documentation
found in the Help file shipped with Eclipse 3.4:

   Platform Plug-in Developer
Guide -> Programmer's Guide -> Runtime Overview -> Security ->
Login based on JAAS

The sample bundle (org.eclipse.equinox.security.sample)
can be found in the Equinox incubator under
   
   Head / equinox-incubator
/ security / org.eclipse.equinox.security.sample

It uses org.eclipse.equinox.security.*
bundles supplied in the Equinox 3.4. If needed, the source code for those
bundles can be found under
   
   Head / org.eclipse.equinox
/ security / bundles

(this last location will change in a
week or two as Equinox moves to become a part of the Runtime project).


As far as implementations go, the starting
points would be that Help page, the following extension points:

org.eclipse.equinox.security.loginConfigurationProvider
               ->
an alternative to JAAS config file to supply configuration description
for a name
org.eclipse.equinox.security.callbackHandlerMapping
               ->
maps configuration name to the callback handler
org.eclipse.equinox.security.callbackHandler
               
       -> a way to describe javax.security.auth.CallbackHandler
org.eclipse.equinox.security.loginModule
               
       -> a way to describe javax.security.auth.spi.LoginModule

and you can take a look at the AuthApplication
class from the org.eclipse.equinox.security.sample as one example as to
how they can be used.

Thanks,
Oleg

Hi,

We are trying to use the security plugin mentioned on this  wiki page:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Security:_JCA/JAAS_framework_contribution

It talks about a product configuration file
(org.eclipse.equinox.security.sample.authProduct), but we could not
find this file anywhere on the cvs server.

It this the correct location?

http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.equinox/security/

We are really interested in using the eclipse 3.4 jaas integration but
we are having a lot of difficulty with it.

Somebody can give us some light about this issue? There are more
documentation somewhere?


Thanks in advance.


Marcelo
