REPORT #563 Details.

Project: Tomcat
Category: Feature Requests
SubCategory: Enhancement
Class: feature
State: received
Priority: medium
Severity: serious
Confidence: public
Environment: 
   Release: 3.2, 4.0
   JVM Release: n.a.
   Operating System: n.a.
   OS Release: n.a.
   Platform: n.a.

Synopsis: 
Make JDBCRealm not a final class

Description:
The JDBCRealm is a cool feature and I have got it working alright. But I need to add 
an extra feature like storing the passwords encrypted in the database and not in clear 
text. Therefore I only need to override the authenticate method in the JDBCRealm class 
and add the encryption algorithm. But since the class is final I'm not allowed to do 
this and must therefore write a whole new class. If the Tomcat project is interested 
in the encryption realm I'm willing to submit/donate the code.
