Allow servlet filters to specify custom session providers
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: JCR-3222
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-3222
Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: jackrabbit-jcr-server
Reporter: Jukka Zitting
Priority: Minor
In order to integrate the Jackrabbit davex server functionality with their
custom authentication logic, the Sling project currently needs to embed and
subclass the davex servlet classes. It would be cleaner if such tight coupling
wasn't needed.
One way to achieve something like that would be to allow external components to
provide a custom SessionProvider instance as an extra request attribute. This
way for example a servlet filter that implements such custom authentication
logic could easily make its functionality available to the standard davex
servlet in Jackrabbit.
