Alan,

in case you need to make a second revision, I would sneak in the removal of the TextCallbackHandler import in NoQuoteParams. It seems not to be used similiar to the DialogCallback.

Another nit, For the Login.java I would add the password to the constructor of $PasswordCallbackHandler, this inner class access to password field is quite confusing.

(I guess one could file a cleanup RFE for both issues instead as well).

Gruss
Bernd

DialogCallbackHandler is the sample Swing based CallbackHandler in the JDK-specific API to JAAS. It's problematic for our modularity efforts and as folks may recall, we deprecated it in JDK 8 with a warning to say that it would be removed in a future release. It was also flagged in JEP 162 as an impediment to the JDK modularization.

I'd like to get the second phase of this work (ie: remove it) into JDK 9 early to give every opportunity for folks that folks that might have a dependency a chance find an alternative solution.

The webrev with the proposed changes is here:
   http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~alanb/8029904/webrev/

With these changes then all tests in the jdk_security jtreg group are passing. There will clearly be additional work to do beyond the code changes (like the JAAS guide) but that is for later.
