Class GlobusSubject

java.lang.Object

org.globus.gsi.gssapi.jaas.JaasSubject

org.globus.gsi.gssapi.jaas.GlobusSubject

public class GlobusSubject
extends JaasSubject

An implementation of the JaasSubject API to circumvent the JAAS problem of Subject propagation. The implementation uses a stackable version of InheritableThreadLocal class to associate the Subject object with the current thread. Any new thread started within a thread that has a Subject object associated with it, will inherit the parent's Subject object. Also, nested doAs, runAs calls are supported.
