Resolution: Done
Automatic creation of transport config in IOR settings
------------------------------------------------------
Key: WFLY-6642
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-6642
Project: WildFly
Issue Type: Enhancement
Components: IIOP
Affects Versions: 10.0.0.Final
Reporter: Tomasz Adamski
Assignee: Tomasz Adamski
Priority: Minor
I propose that the transport config parameters configured in ior settings, which later
are present in the description of all corba object IORs created in the server, are created
automatically. I don't like the idea of manual configuration as it provides invalid
description of actual transport parameters in most circumstances. We are providing either
standard socket transport or (if configured) SSL transport. Currently user is responsible
for providing transport description. So if for example user configures SSL transport but
doesn't change transport config then transport description in ior settings is invalid.
What is more transport config is currently used to configure required SSL connection -
that is if user wants to configure SSL connection he has to specify at least one SSL
related transport field as required. This is imo inelegant and not much user friendly. I
propose the following change: transport config is created automatically. If user
configures SSL then all transport fields provided by SSL (f.e. confidentiality) will be
set as supported. To configure required ssl connections server-requires-ssl field in
security tag is introduced. If this field is set to true, then all SSL transport fields
will be set as required, thus we will achieve factual transport description in
ior-settings and provide user with simple SSL configuration.
