---------------------------------------------
Summary: Remove the causeway-extensions-shiro-realm-ldap extension.
Key: CAUSEWAY-3513
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAUSEWAY-3513
Project: Causeway
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Ext Sec shiro-realm-ldap
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-RC1
Reporter: Daniel Keir Haywood
Assignee: Daniel Keir Haywood
Fix For: 2.0.0-RC2
In light of secman, this realm is for the most part redundant. What it does is
to extend Shiro's LDAP realm to also query LDAP for roles (aka groups), and to
map these roles to permissions ... in other words, it adds authorisation on top
of Shiro's LDAP authentication.
However, it's much more convenient and powerful to use secman for
authorisation. We already have support (through secman's own realm with
"delegate" realm capability) to configure shiro for ldap authentication, with
secman for authorisation.
