public class LoginInitialContextFactory

extends NamingContextFactory (src)

A naming provider InitialContextFactory implementation that combines the authentication phase with the InitialContext creation. During the getInitialContext callback from the JNDI naming layer a JAAS LoginContext is created using the login configuration name passed in as the Context.SECURITY_PROTOCOL env property. The CallbackHandler used is a org.jboss.security.auth.callback.UsernamePasswordHandler that is populated with the username obtained from the Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL env property and the credentials from the Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS env property.
