             Summary: Deprecate the ModelControllerClientConfiguration's setAuthenticationConfigUri method
                 Key: WFCORE-3196
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-3196
             Project: WildFly Core
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Domain Management
            Reporter: James Perkins
            Assignee: James Perkins
            Priority: Blocker


The {{ModelControllerClientConfiguration.setAuthenticationConfigUri()}} should be deprecated as we may want this removed in favor of a consumer of the client creating an {{org.wildfly.security.auth.client.AuthenticationContext}} and wrapping the context in a {{org.jboss.as.controller.client.helpers.ContextualModelControllerClient}}.

The ability to set a URI for a {{wildfly-config.xml}} was created to allow the {{wildfly-maven-plugin}} and {{wildfly-arquillian}} to authenticate with a server which has been configured with Elyron for management authentication. However these may be special use cases. It's currently unknown how other consumers of a {{ModelControllerClient}}, e.g. Hawkular, JBoss Tools, etc., would expect authentication to work.

Currently other clients, for example the EJB client, assume the user of the client creates an {{AuthenticationContext}}. This can either be done manually or by using auto-discovery.
