Adrian Co reopened AMQ-908: --------------------------- Assignee: Jonas Lim I think its much better if we perform parseACL in the afterPropertiesSet method (assuming it implements the InitializingBean), rather than relying on alphabetical properties. Thoughts? > Authorization plugin should have configurable principal classes > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: AMQ-908 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-908 > Project: ActiveMQ > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Broker > Affects Versions: 4.0.1 > Reporter: Aaron Mulder > Assigned To: Jonas Lim > Fix For: 4.2.0 > > Attachments: authorizationPlugin.patch, authorizationPlugin.patch, > AuthorizationPlugin.patch, AuthorizationPlugin.patch > > > Currently, if you configure the authorization plugin, it assumes that all > principals listed should be of type > {{org.apache.activemq.jaas.GroupPrincipal}}. This is OK if you're using > ActiveMQ LoginModules, but since there's a fairly small supply of those, it > would be great if you could use arbitrary login modules and tell the > authorization plugin which principal classes to use. For example, > {{groupClass="weblogic.security.principal.WLSGroupImpl}} or something like > that. A good first step would be to let you change the group class. A good > second step would be to let you specify user and group classes and then > somehow indicate which names are which (e.g. > {{admin="administrators,user:aaron,user:bob"}} or whatever). Someday maybe > it will be nice to support any arbitrary combination of principal classes but > that seems far away. > When instantiating the principal classes, I imagine we should use a > constructor with a single String argument if available, or else a default > constructor plus a "setName" method, or else I guess bail. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
