[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-25374?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Rob Stryker commented on JBIDE-25374: ------------------------------------- I'm not entirely sure this is possible. First, not all credentials will be validatable. Remember, the credential framework is sorted into domains only really as an organizing method. The credentials aren't used exclusively with those domains. Second, even if they were, there's no universal web url at every domain through which all credentials can be validated. This means the validation method would need to be customized per-domain, which would drastically reduce it's utility. Third, if credentials for servers that are not up yet (ie imagine an apache server on a machine in your network) simply can't be validated. Fourth, since we mostly just take a domain, a user, and a password (for now), we'd need to know what TYPE of credentials this is. If it's an ssh credential, it's validation method would be completely different than if it's an https credential for your IP's apache installation, or for an instance of your mysql database. As of now, we don't separate out credential types, and so we can't really know how to validate it. I see this as an extremely difficult task, at least to solve generically in the credentials framework itself. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.5.0#75005)
