Apache Sling JCR Jackrabbit Base

This module is part of the Apache Sling project.

The JCR base bundle provides Jackrabbit utility classes for integrating Jackrabbit security and configuration extension points with an OSGi runtime.

Key Components

• OsgiBeanFactory (org.apache.sling.jcr.jackrabbit.base.config) tracks OSGi services marked as Jackrabbit extensions and exposes a BeanFactory when all required dependencies are available.
• DelegatingLoginModule delegates JAAS login handling to an OSGi-based JAAS configuration when available, with fallback to Jackrabbit's local module setup.
• PrincipalProviderTracker and DelegatingPrincipalProviderRegistry bridge OSGi-registered PrincipalProvider services into Jackrabbit's principal provider registry model.
• MultiplexingAuthorizableAction tracks OSGi AuthorizableAction services and dispatches Jackrabbit authorizable lifecycle callbacks to them.
