Migrate Elytron: equivalent of HttpServletRequest.login?

[Richard Kennard]

Hi there,

Thanks for all your great work on WildFly!

I am trying to implement a custom login in WildFly 20. In the past I have used HttpServletRequest.login to programmatically login to the JAAS subsystem. However when I try this on WildFly 20 I get:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java/security/acl/Group

I understand this class has been removed as of JDK 14. What is the correct alternative to calling HttpServletRequest.login now?

We are still successfully using  HttpServletRequest.login with wildfly 24+ and elytron subsystem.

Might be some custom code in your class which does the login or a custom login module ?
