             Summary: ThreadLocal based Security Provider proxy
                 Key: WSS-507
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSS-507
             Project: WSS4J
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: WSS4J Core
            Reporter: Alessio Soldano
            Assignee: Colm O hEigeartaigh
             Fix For: 2.0.2
         Attachments: proposal.diff

This feature request is about adding a mechanism for making WSS4J (and possibly other \
projects relying on it) transparently use a Security Provider without globally \
installing it the JVM. This prevents side effects on other frameworks running within \
the same JVM and not wanting the BouncyCastle provider currently registered by WSS4J. \
The idea is to register a provider acting as a proxy to a different and thread local \
scoped provider. The proxied provider reference would have to be set and cleaned up \
by the WSS4J consumers. The reference being thread local ensures different threads \
don't have access to it. When no proxied provider is set, the installed provider \
basically serves no algorithm / service.
