Spring.NET Framework for Security
To learn more about Spring.NET, I bought the Spring in Action book, which deals with the Java version of the framework.
I noticed that the book talks about Spring. Security and how you can manage security / login etc. using this part of the framework.
As I read, I got very excited about the specifics of the security infrastructure, but soon noticed that this part of Spring was not ported to .NET? Are there any alternatives / ports that can be used similarly to Acegi?
source to share
This came up a couple of times, so there is definitely interest. An old project on sourceforge did an automated translation with the Java Java Language Conversion Tool (JLCA) and then some polish to get it to work (I think). I recently looked at this code at the request of a client and didn't really like it because of this automated approach as Spring Security 3.0 has been heavily refactored to avoid circular dependencies and provide better internal modularity, d restart migration efforts again based on Spring Security database 3.0. There is a nice blog that explains the Spring 3.0 framework. See http://blog.springsource.com/2009/06/03/spring-security-300m1-released/
In short, there are currently no alternatives that I know of, but would be very interested in contributing some input to the www.springsource.org/extensions Spring Extension Project to port this. Please contact me at mark.pollack@springsource.com if you are interested!
