[jira] Commented: (GERONIMO-5468) Support authenticate/login/logout methods in the HttpServletRequest interface

["David Jencks (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-5468?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12908967#action_12908967 ] 

David Jencks commented on GERONIMO-5468:
----------------------------------------

I think tomcat implemented request.login wrong.  This should just delegate to something, not try to fish around trying to figure out if the realm supports user-pw auth.  I will take this up with the tomcat community.  Hopefully we can make smaller changes to our code.
