Hi Shawn Earlier this year, you've asked me about supporting CCAPI in Java. At the time, our Java JGSS provider only support the FILE ccache reading. (We do have a native bridge to GSSAPI but that provider is not turned on by default).
I'm creating a native bridge to CCAPI now. Some questions: 1. How can I create a non-FILE ccache for a test? 2. How likely is that a non-FILE ccache will be used in practice nowadays? Currently the Java build machine of Solaris is still S10 6/06. Since Kerberos 5 API are introduced in S10 8/07, I need a strong reason to persuade the release team to upgrade or add krb5.h to the building environment. 3. I'm writing my codes based on the klist program in MIT krb5-1.7, which include calls to these functions: krb5_init_context krb5_cc_default krb5_cc_get_name krb5_cc_get_type krb5_cc_set_flags krb5_cc_start_seq_get krb5_cc_next_cred krb5_unparse_name krb5_free_unparsed_name krb5_free_cred_contents krb5_cc_end_seq_get krb5_free_context How about the compatibility of these functions with previous/other versions of krb5? Since JGSS already supports reading FILE ccache, I won't care about the old krb5 versions that also only supports FILE ccache. Thanks Max
