LocalUserClient missing from jboss-client.jar

[Daniel.Ger]

Hi everyone,

I noticed that the jboss-client.jar since I think two versions ago doesn't include the LocalUserClient anymore (package org.wildfly.security.sasl.localuser is missing).

Do you know if that was on purpose and if there is any other way how I should nowadays do the local user authentication?

For now, I'm just using the jboss-client.jar of an old version of Wildfly, which is still working with the most recent versions of the servier - but of course that's not a very good long term solution.

Any other ideas how to do it? 

Unfortunately I didn't find any documentation about this change, although I might just be bad at searching.

It looks like an oversight to not including this class or wildfly-elytron-sasl-localuser.jar. To workaround this, you can append jboss-cli-client.jar (in the same directory as jboss-client.jar under WildFly installation) to your client classpath. Or you can directly append an appropriate version of wildfly-elytron-sasl-localuser.jar to your client path.

A better approach is to use BOM in your application's maven dependency management, such as wildfly-ejb-client-bom.

Thanks for the quick response!

We'll add the libraries. I've tested and it works perfectly with the jboss-cli-client.jar added, as well as with the BOM dependencies instead of the other jars.
