Comment: Migration of unmigrated content due to installation of a new plugin

...

To deploy a new realm, you can use the following XSD which is supported by a Spring namespace handler and can thus be defined in a spring xml configuration file.

You can find the schema at the following location.

Here are two example using this schema:

               keystorePassword="keyStorePassword"
               keyPasswords="myalias=myAliasPassword">
</jaas:keystore>

...

Each realm can contain one or more module definition. Each module identify a LoginModule and the className attribute must be set to the class name of the login module to use. Note that this login module must be available from the bundle classloader, so either it has to be defined in the bundle itself, or the needed package needs to be correctly imported. The flags attribute can take one of four values that are explained on the JAAS documentation.
The content of the module element is parsed as a properties file and will be used to further configure the login module.

Deploying such a code will lead to a JaasRealm object in the OSGi registry, which will then be used when using the JAAS login module.

...

Due to constraints in the JAAS specification, one class has to be available for all bundles. This class is called ProxyLoginModule and is a LoginModule that acts as a proxy for an OSGi defines LoginModule. If you plan to integrate this feature into another OSGi runtime, this class must be made available from the system classloader and the related package be part of the boot delegation classpath (or be deployed as a fragment attached to the system bundle).

The xml schema defined above allow the use of a simple xml (leveraging spring xml extensibility) to configure and register a JAAS configuration for a given realm. This configuration will be made available into the OSGi registry as a JaasRealm and the OSGi specific Configuration will look for such services. Then the proxy login module will be able to use the information provided by the realm to actually load the class from the bundle containing the real login module.
