Hello,
I am using Hibernate from few days then I have a lot of black holes.
I am writing a Web Application on Tomcat 5.5 and i have a problem:
- Tomcat jdcrealm not use hibernate but standard jdbc database access.
I want write a custom tomcat realm that use hibernate to access user and role tables of my database.
Is anyone has resolved this kind of problem ? Do you have an example of custom tomcat Realm which use hibernate managed objects ?

Thank you very much for your help,
Excuses my poor english.

IMO using H to create custom realm for Tomcat would be severe overhead. If you want you of course can easily do that, it would be just regular H application wrapped into class that implements Realm interface, consult source code of any standard realm

I still think you may much better of with standard JDBC realm going against desired database.

Thanks Konstantin,
excuse me, but my english is poor and I dont understand your answer.
Writing a custom tomcat realm that uses hibernate to access users database is a good or a bad idea ?

In my opinion it is bad idea.

Create view to adapt standard implementation, it makes sence to implement custom realm if you need to integrate some exotic authorization, but it doe's not makes sence for RDBMS.
