Torgeir, Definitely. I'll be working on it next week (vacation, woo hoo! ;-) and hope to have a release version ready by the beginning of August. I'll post a link when it is ready.
I plan to release the source code, and I'd also like to provide a binary version that you can easily drop into an app to replace container-manager security (just move your security constraints out of web.xml and into a new file, and provide a very simple realm implementation). A nice feature of this approach is that you can deploy your whole app, including the realm implementation (which often depends on other parts of your code), as a single war file with no external dependencies. This packaging consideration is what drove the development intitially. -Max ----- Original Message ----- From: "Struts Newsgroup" <@[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, July 19, 2002 1:40 AM Subject: Re: Struts/Container-Managed Authentication Question > Subject: Re: Struts/Container-Managed Authentication Question > From: Torgeir Veimo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > === > Max Cooper wrote: > > > If you can live with a short-term compromise of having a login link on every > > page rather than a login form, the first design I sent out should work for > > that.
