> Right now in order to get the password, the client has to write a password callback module and deploy it. And then refer the name of the dll via the policy descriptor. This is quite unnecessary, if we can provide a callback function in the client code.
> So my suggestion is that we set a pointer of the callback function in to the message context within the client code. Later when the rampart context is created, we can transfer this function pointer to the rampart context.
> In this way without changing the core functionalities we can get rid of the password callback modules in the client side.
