http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29048 Request changes to java permissions in DataSourceRealm Summary: Request changes to java permissions in DataSourceRealm Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.0.19 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Catalina AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] My problem is this. I need to modify the DataSourceRealm so that failed login attempts are recorded and an account gets locked after a certain number of login failures. I want to subclass the DataSourceRealm but unfortunately some of the key methods, authenticate(x3 params), open and close are declared private. The app is to be deployed at a commercial ISP so changing the DatSourceRealm class directly isn't a possibility. I intend to copy the class and make the appropriate changes as a sibling but it would have been preferable to just override these methods. I would request that the permissions on useful methods in the org.apache.catalina.realm.DataSourceRealm be modified from private to protected to make future changes easier. I am more than happy to do these changes myself and send the modified class to you. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
