SEC15 — PrincipalAuthenticator and Current

  • Key: SEC15-1
  • Legacy Issue Number: 2027
  • Status: closed

  • Summary:

    Summary: I have a problem discovering the semantics of using
    Current.set_credentials(SecInvocationCredentials) as opposed to using an
    InvocationCredentials Policy object on Current, or the target object
    reference.

    I believe we should deprecate set_credentials and get_credentials infavor
    of InvocationCredentials and NonRepudiationCredentials Policy Objects.
    This mechanism seems more in line with the the way we seem to be
    traveling. So it will be consistent with the client invocation policy
    model.

    Or. we should put an explicit statement ordering the retrieval of
    credentials at object reference creation.

    1. InvocationCredentailsPolicy object off of Target object reference.
    2. InvocationCredentialsPolicy object from the Current.
    3. Current.get_credentials()
