SASL support missing for Python messaging API
Last modified: 2015-11-15 20:11:57 EST
SASL support was added for the legacy Python API but has not been integrated into the newly introduced messaging API.
The feature was implemented, qpid.messaging's Connection now contains the sasl_mechanism, sasl_service, sasl_min_ssf, sasl_max_ssf. Testing proved that qpid high level API python client authenticates to broker. Tested on RHEL 4.8 / 5.5 i386 / x86_64 on packages: python-qmf-0.7.946106-13.el5 python-qpid-0.7.946106-14.el5 qmf-*0.7.946106-17.el5 qpid-cpp-*-0.7.946106-17.el5 qpid-dotnet-0.4.738274-2.el5 qpid-java-*-0.7.946106-10.el5 qpid-tools-0.7.946106-11.el5 ruby-qmf-0.7.946106-17.el5 ruby-qpid-0.7.946106-2.el5 -> VERIFIED
Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the "Technical Notes" field accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team. New Contents: The Python Messaging API now includes support for Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL), which allows authentication support to be added to connection-based protocols.
