The beauty of JAAS is attributed to its simplest layout architecture. No matter how complicated the underlying implementation is, the interface remains essentially the same. Once the JAAS interface is integrated into your business layer, it's a done deal -- regardless of the change and upgrade at the actual authentication layer.
Here is a minimal example to integrate JAAS:
/* JAAS Part I -- Authentication */
LoginContext lc = new LoginContext("myLoginEntity");
try {
lc.login();
} catch (LoginException e) {
throw e;
}
/* JAAS Part II -- Authorization */
Subject sub = lc.getSubject();
Subject.doAs(sub, new MyPrivilegedAction());
That's it. Just that simple!
