Hello,
Could you please review my fix for 8016848:
webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mullan/webrevs/8016848/webrev.00/
bug: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8016848
This is a bug because
javax.security.auth.login.Configuration.getConfiguration() throws a
ClassCastException when run with the compact1 or compact2 profiles.
This is because the default Configuration object that is returned is not
in the compact1 profile. The default Configuration is specified by the
"login.configuration.provider" security property (in the Java security
properties file). This property is currently set to
com.sun.security.auth.login.ConfigFile which is not in the compact1 or
compact2 profiles
The fix is to change the default value of the
"login.configuration.provider" security property to
sun.security.provider.ConfigFile, which will be a new class that is
essentially a copy of com.sun.security.auth.login.ConfigFile. However,
because it is in the sun.security.provider package, it will be in all
profiles. We will not remove the com.sun.security.auth.login.ConfigFile
class as there may be some applications directly using it.
noreg-jck as there is an existing JCK test for this.
Thanks,
Sean
