    copied!<p>In a EJB project, I need to replace the call princial name in "javax.ejb.SessionContext". I use Jboss AS 6.0 Final as the application server.</p> <p>I defined a custom UserLoginModule that extends UsernamePasswordLoginModule and added a custom principal, but my custom principal won't be propagated to EJB SessionContext.</p> <p>Here is some code from my custom login module:</p> <pre><code>@Override protected Group[] getRoleSets() throws LoginException { Group[] groups = new Group[2]; groups[0] = new SimpleGroup("Roles"); groups[0].addMember(createRoleIdentity()); Group callerPrincipal = new SimpleGroup("CallerPrincipal"); callerPrincipal.addMember(createIdentity(this.getUsername())); groups[1] = callerPrincipal; subject.getPrincipals().add(callerPrincipal); return groups; } @Override protected Principal createIdentity(String username) throws LoginException { return new MyCustomPrincipal(username); } } </code></pre> <p>My custom login module works well, but the caller principal I get from "javax.ejb.SessionContext" is still SimplePrincipal.</p> <p>It turned out that there is a Jobss bug: EJBContext.getCallerPrincipal() is not returning custom principal <a href="https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-8427" rel="nofollow">https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-8427</a></p> <p>And a related topic: <a href="http://community.jboss.org/thread/44388" rel="nofollow">http://community.jboss.org/thread/44388</a>. </p> <p>I wonder if you have some experiences on this and is it safe to replace the default principal Jboss creates? Are ther any side effects? </p>
