[jira] [Commented] (OWB-1027) Use Apache Commons Weaver's privilizer module for privileged action code in OWB

Romain Manni-Bucau commented on OWB-1027:
-----------------------------------------

-1, this is an API and each user can change it depending the need. This is a feature not an impl detail imho. Implementing it with privilizer is possible but shouldnt break any api nor add any dependency

> See [http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-weaver/commons-weaver-modules-parent/commons-weaver-privilizer-parent/index.html]; this code was intended for helping Apache JEE components use the {{SecurityManager}} in such a fashion as to make the invocation of privileged actions as transparent as possible.
> A concern is that to make full use of the privilizer module's potential, OWB's {{SecurityService}} notion would IMO best be removed entirely to minimize the surface area of publicly accessible code that makes privileged calls. Since this interface and its implementations, as well as the {{deprecated SecurityUtil}} class, are {{public}}, this constitutes a break in API compatibility and forces the community to think about if, when, and how to upgrade OWB to v2.x .
