Re: [undertow-dev] Configure authentication mechanisms

If you are configuring Undertow programmatically you need to add a io.undertow.security.handlers.AuthenticationMechanismsHandler to the handler chain that has your authentication mechanism. Unfortunately we don't have a way of hooking this up into the Wildfly config yet, although it will not be a very big job. Regarding config options for AS7 there are a few possibilities: 1) Allow the user to specify the class name and module in JBoss Web to configure per app, and same in standalone.xml for global authenticators. 2) Introduce a servlet loader based mechanism to allow mechanisms to be loaded and associated with a simple name. This name could then be specified in the web.xml login config. In the subsystem you could list all the modules that you want to load authentication mechanisms from. This has the advantage that internal class names do not leak out into config. 3) Some other way?? I am leaning towards option 2. I think it should be possible to get this integrated into the next Undertow release early next week. Stuart Anil Saldhana wrote:
