- ===============================================================================
- ACEGI SECURITY SYSTEM FOR SPRING - UPGRADING FROM 0.4 TO 0.5
- ===============================================================================
- The following should help most casual users of the project update their
- applications:
- - All filters are now loaded via FilterToBeanProxy. The FilterToBeanProxy
- obtains the filter from a Spring application context via the
- WebApplicationContextUtils.getApplicationContext() method. Refer to the
- reference documentation to see the new configuration of filters.
- - SecurityEnforcementFilter now requires an AuthenticationEntryPoint.
- Refer to the reference documentation to see the alternatives available.
- - Any of your login or login failure pages that previously referred to
- AuthenticationProcessingFilter.ACEGI_SECURITY_LAST_EXCEPTION_KEY
- should now use
- net.sf.acegisecurity.ui.AbstractProcessingFilter.ACEGI_SECURITY_LAST_EXCEPTION_KEY
- - DaoAuthenticationProvider no longer provides setters for case sensitivity
- handling. The respective AuthenticationDao implementations should decide
- whether or not to return User instances reflecting the exact case of the
- requested username. The new PlaintextPasswordEncoder offers a setter for
- ignoring the password case (defaults to require exact case matches).
- - DaoAuthenticationProvider now provides caching. Successful authentications
- return DaoAuthenticationTokens. You must set the mandatory "key" property
- on DaoAuthenticationProvider so these tokens can be validated. You may
- also wish to change the "refreshTokenInterval" property from the default
- of 60,000 milliseconds.
- - If you're using container adapters, please refer to the reference
- documentation as additional JARs are now required in your container
- classloader.
- - Whilst not really a change needed to your program, if you're using
- Acegi Security please consider joining the acegisecurity-developer mailing
- list. This is currently the best way to keep informed about the project's
- status and provide feedback in design discussions. You can join at
- https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/acegisecurity-developer.
- Please continue using the Spring Users mailing list for general support.
- There are also lots of new features you might wish to consider for your
- projects. These include CAS integration, pluggable password encoders
- (such as MD5 and SHA), along with pluggable salt sources. We hope you find
- the new features useful in your projects.
