-----------------------------------------------
There seems to be only way to satisfy these requirements, which is putting this
information in a ThreadLocal variable
> Implement pluggable and centralized context management service

> Key: AMDATU-247
> URL: http://jira.amdatu.org/jira/browse/AMDATU-247
> Project: Amdatu
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Amdatu Auth
> Affects Versions: 0.1.0
> Reporter: Ivo Ladage - van Doorn
> Fix For: 0.1.0
>
>
> The following issues describe context-related issues in Amdatu:
> http://jira.amdatu.org/jira/browse/AMDATU-84
> http://jira.amdatu.org/jira/browse/AMDATU-245
> http://jira.amdatu.org/jira/browse/AMDATU-246
> Each of these issues refer to the need of context information, sometimes a
> 'username' and in other cases a 'tenantid'. The issues described some
> possible solutions which have obvious drawbacks:
> - Passing context information in method invocations, over and over again
> - Retrieving context information from a HTTP request
> Now while these issues only describe the contextual information 'username'
> and 'tenantid', it is likely that more context information is required in the
> future. For example the OpenSocial context is represented by a security
> token, which contains a viewerid, ownerid but also an expiry date of the
> context. So a similar approach should be available in Amdatu and it should
> satisfy the following requirements:
> - Context is always available, without the need of passing a HTTP request
> - The context is pluggable; any component may add a piece of information to
> the context (like Shindig adding a OpenSocial context, containing the
> viewerid and ownerid)
