Jukka Zitting resolved JCR-3222.
--------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: 2.4
Assignee: Jukka Zitting
OK, I've now combined the two approaches. Revision 1236819 is my original patch
and revision 1236821 a modified version of Felix' patch with support for
potentially more than just a single external SessionProvider service. Note that
the request attribute mechanism works for all webdav servlets, while the OSGi
service mechanism only works for the davex servlet (since it's the only servlet
configured as an OSGi service).
Additionally in revision 1236820 I moved some extra SessionProviderImpl code
(added in JCR-2539 and JCR-2542) to the JCRWebdavServlet class where it belongs
better. That clears up the SessionProvider API contract and avoids breaking
functionality when using custom SessionProvider implementations.
Merged to the 2.4 branch in revision 1236837.

>
> 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.
