I made a ServletExtension that adds an AuthenticationMethod to an Undertow servlet
deployment. I have a basic mock up of the authentication method working.
In order to move beyond the mock up, my authentication mechanism needs to use a service
that my Wildfly extension puts into the (JBoss MSC) service registry. I’m not seeing how
to put the pieces together to get a reference to the service registry so I can locate my
service.
Does someone have an example that I could reference or tips on how I might go about this?
Thanks,
Carl

ServletExtension is not really meant to be also WildFly extension... but
there is some overlap.
As ServletExtension would work also outside wildfly deployment.
what you could do is use Service Activator that implements
*org.jboss.msc.service.ServiceActivator*
and register it as a service in your deployment.
This service activator will be than activated with deployment is started.
And example how to use this can be found at:
http://management-platform.blogspot.com/2012/07/co-located-management-cli...
other option would be to write proper WildFly extension which is bit more
work.
take a look at
https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY8/Extending+WildFly+8
for how to do that.

Perhaps I wasn’t clear in my original message. I have written a proper Wildfly extension.
It uses a DeploymentProcessor to observe deployments and participates and in the
management model to create/configure the services needed for the authentication and
authorization mechanisms I wish to support.
I am using an Undertow ServletExtension so that I can augment the authentication
mechanisms supported by Undertow with my own mechanism.
What I’m unclear on how to accomplish is how to get a reference to the services I have
created in my Wildfly extension from within the implementation of my Undertow
authentication mechanism and associated identity manager.
Thanks for any tips/advice.

if you do have proper extension, than it is simple :)
You could create your servletExtension as part of your deployment
processor, where you can lookup service registry by calling
deploymentUnit.getServiceRegistry() and lookup service from there.
once you have created your servletextension with the data from your service
just pass that servlet extension instance to attachment list.
deploymentUnit.addToAttachmentList(UndertowAttachments.UNDERTOW_SERVLET_EXTENSIONS,
your servlet extension);
this way your exact instance will be used, no need for registering it as
service in meta-inf...
hope this helps,

org.jboss.as.server.CurrentServiceContainer#getServiceContainer() lets you get a reference
to the container, which you can then use to look up the services by name.
You should make sure that the web deployment has a dependency on these services, just to
make sure they are there when you look them up.
