Alex Rudyy updated QPID-7168: ----------------------------- Fix Version/s: (was: qpid-java-broker-7.1.0) Future > Allow authentication providers to resolve a realm qualified user identity > into a displayable name > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: QPID-7168 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-7168 > Project: Qpid > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Broker-J > Reporter: Keith Wall > Priority: Major > Fix For: Future > > > Extend the Authentication Provider interface to allow implementations to > resolve a realm qualified user identity into a human readable name. If the > authentication provider does not recognise the realm, it is not capable of > resolving names or the name is not known, the provider must return null. > Callers must be prepared to handle null. > Internally, providers may implement this method by calling out to the > authentication backend. Alternatively, the provider may maintain a cache of > names, populated as users authenticate. The provider should be prepared to > be queried many times for a user's name during the lifetime of Broker's > execution, so should take steps to avoid expensive processing, if necessary. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@qpid.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@qpid.apache.org
