[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (EJBTHREE-761) SessionContext.getCallerPrincipal() throws NullPointerException in embedded container

SessionContext.getCallerPrincipal() throws NullPointerException in embedded container ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: EJBTHREE-761 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/EJBTHREE-761 Project: EJB 3.0 Issue Type: Patch Components: Security Affects Versions: EJB 3.0 RC8 - FD Reporter: John Gilbert The exception happens in org.jboss.security.plugins.JaasSecurityManager.getPrincipal(Principal principal) when it is synchronized on domainCache. domainCache is null because org.jboss.ejb3.embedded.JaasSecurityManagerService does not initialize it. There are two possible fixes: 1 - org.jboss.security.plugins.JaasSecurityManager should check for null first like it does in most of the methods. 2 - have org.jboss.ejb3.embedded.JaasSecurityManagerService initialize the cache with a mock cache policy. This is what I did to fix mine. private static JaasSecurityManager getSecurityManager(String name) { ... manager = new JaasSecurityManager(name, new SecurityAssociationHandler()); manager.setCachePolicy(new MockCachePolicy()); //MockCachePolicy is just a noop impl ... } -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
