[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (ELY-159) Discovery of available algorithms for credential types

[Darran Lofthouse (JIRA)]

Darran Lofthouse commented on ELY-159:
--------------------------------------

Validation API also has a similar concern, i.e. the realm should support validating the most specific type and some form of translations should be possible.

> The overall purpose of the getCredentialSupport calls is so that we can discover information about the supported credentials as authentication mechanisms are offered - the algorithm for the digest is just as important as knowing the general type.
> May just be a part of ELY-151 or may be something in addition.
