Hi,
can the authentication mechanism have a lifecycle based on the
context lifecycle?
I need access to the ServletContext to look for deployment descriptors
using the servletContext.getResourceAsStream() call.
I am thinking something along the lines of:
authenticationMechanism.start(ServletContext);
authenticationMechanis.stop();
This will give an opportunity for the authentication mechanism to
initialize and finalize any resources.
Regards,
Anil
