[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-2992) Allow for the client to retry username/passwords in callback handlers

Allow for the client to retry username/passwords in callback handlers --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: AS7-2992 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-2992 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Feature Request Reporter: Max Rydahl Andersen Assignee: Emanuel Muckenhuber Fix For: 7.1.0.CR1, 7.1.0.Final Is there a way to get the security layer to retry an auth if auth fail and only give up if a certain option is set ? Usecase is that we get the auth challenge, if we already have the username/password we give that back and in normal case that just works and everything is fine. In the case where the username/password is not correct we right now end up with an SASLException and need to redo the whole thing again :) Is there a way or could there be a way to make the system keep trying the auth until the user gives up (i.e. press Cancel) or we reach some maximum level of retries ? This would simplify the code a lot as far as I can see since no need to implement "retry" logic in our workflow then.
