Having a PlainTextPassword and EncodedPassword separation at the
class level is good. It clearly tells the user/developer what type of password is being
stored. But if he chooses PTP, should we do the default salting/hashing in the background?
The EncodedPassword can allow configuration of salting/hashing mechanisms.
We should not at any cost save plain text passwords in the tables.
+1 and maybe for
a while we could refactor PlainTextPassword to EncodedPassword and avoid some
misunderstanding.
Makes sense?
Wdyt?

extra code to get encoded passwords. The code you pointed out is already doing that:

Behind the scenes it is using SHA-512 and a SecureRandom-1024 salt. Unfortunately, you can
not change such configuration for now. Regards. Pedro Igor ----- Original Message -----

class name led me to some confusion and I missed the real concept here. So, the
PlainTextPassword can be used to store encoded password which algorithm will be used
behind the scen
es? Which extra code is necessary to have encoded passwords on
PicketLink? Could you please provide some example? +1 on EncodedPassword class.

we can change the API to better indicate whether you want to use encoded passwords or not.
