[forge-dev] Security addon in Forge

So, I am reworking this addon for the third time now.

I reached to the conclusion that I will create a mirroring SecurityFacet
implementation for every ServletFacet implementation (2_5, 3_0, 3_1).
Before you jumping at me, I would like to share some code. :)

public interface SecurityFacet<DESCRIPTOR extends WebAppCommonDescriptor>
{
   public void addLoggingConfig(AuthenticationMethod method, String realmName);
}

public interface SecurityFacet_2_5 extends
SecurityFacet<org.jboss.shrinkwrap.descriptor.api.webapp25.WebAppDescriptoWebAppDescriptor>

public class SecurityFacetImpl_2_5 extends ServletFacetImpl_2_5
implements SecurityFacet_2_5

Before that though, I wonder is there a possibility to somehow inject the
needed ServletFacetImpl inside its corresponding SecurityFacetImpl, i.e.
compose it? I am doing it now with inheritance, but I don't quite like it
because of the DependencyInstaller dependency in the ServletFacetImpl
constructors. Which I need to explicitly create a constructor in the
SecurityFacetImpl for:

@Inject
public SecurityFacetImpl_2_5(DependencyInstaller installer)
{
   super(installer);
}


I will share later some code, but please tell me whether composition over
inheritance will work in case of facets?

Thanks,
Ivan
