Re: [undertow-dev] loginPage and security constraints

Just looked through the code, and confirmed that the servlet code should work as Anil describes. If your form auth page contains references to static resources though these will also be secured, so if you are trying to secure everything you will probably run into problems. This is only for Servlet form auth, native Undertow form auth just uses a redirect at the moment.
