             Summary: Allow usage of properties to configure sasl server factories
                 Key: ELY-257
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-257
             Project: WildFly Elytron
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: SASL
            Reporter: Kabir Khan
            Assignee: Darran Lofthouse
             Fix For: 1.0.0.Alpha5


There is some discussion on https://github.com/wildfly-security/wildfly-elytron/pull/264. In this case the issue is that we have a ChannelBindingSaslServerFactory (and same for client) which provides a callback handler to deal with the channel binding callbacks needed by Gs2SaslServerFactory and Gs2SaslClientFactory. This is fine for when people create their own SaslServerFactory, and use that to create a SaslServer.

However, if they want to call Sasl.createServer()/.createClient() they need to provide their own callback handler to deal with the channel binding types. 

One option would be to allow the usage of properties for this configuration needed by the factories. 

However, having slept on it, the callback handler passed in to Sasl.createXXX() would need to handle all callbacks. Is there a way to get the 'real' callback for the user? Or is the intent that they have to write their own?
