- ===============================================================================
- ACEGI SECURITY SYSTEM FOR SPRING - UPGRADING FROM 0.3 TO 0.4
- ===============================================================================
- Several changes were made between version 0.3 and 0.4 of the project.
- These changes increased the modularity of the code, enhanced unit testing,
- made package roles clearer, and added compelling alternatives to container
- adapters and using web.xml security constraints to protect HTTP resources.
- Unfortunately, changes to the API and package locations were required. The
- following should help most casual users of the project update their
- applications:
- - All references to net.sf.acegisecurity.SecurityInterceptor become
- net.sf.acegisecurity.intercept.method.MethodSecurityInterceptor.
- - All references to net.sf.acegisecurity.MethodDefinitionAttributes become
- net.sf.acegisecurity.intercept.method.MethodDefinitionAttributes.
- - All references to net.sf.acegisecurity.adapters.AutoIntegrationFilter become
- net.sf.acegisecurity.ui.AutoIntegrationFilter (see your web.xml).
- - If you're using container adapters (extremely likely), consider replacing
- them with the net.sf.acegisecurity.ui.webapp package. This will avoid
- the need to have JARs in your container classloader, and is a lot cleaner.
- Refer to the reference documentation or Contacts sample application.
- - If you're using web.xml <security-constraint>s for securing HTTP URLs
- (extremely likely), consider replacing it with the
- net.sf.acegisecurity.intercept.web package. This will give you considerably
- more flexibility, and reuse the same concepts as you'd be familiar with
- via the method security interception system. Refer to the reference
- documentation or Contacts sample application.
- - The Contacts sample application now builds two distributions: contacts.war
- can be instantly deployed without configuring any container adapters,
- whilst contacts-container-adapter.war still uses container adapters. The
- contacts.war uses the net.sf.acegisecurity.intercept.web package to
- protect HTTP URLs, rather than web.xml <security-constraint>s.
- - If you're using the Jetty container adapter, please check the jetty.xml
- requirements in the reference documentation. There has been a minor change.
- We hope you find the new features useful in your projects.
