Hi Folks,

in TomEE 8.0.0 there seems to be something wrong with the Principal
injection: The follwoing code works fine in M2:

package leaktest;

import java.security.Principal;
import javax.enterprise.context.RequestScoped;
import javax.inject.Inject;
import javax.inject.Named;

@Named
@RequestScoped
public class PrincipalTest {

@Inject
private Principal principal;

public String userName()

Unknown macro: { return principal.getName(); }

}

Inside a JSF page I can use "User Name: #

Unknown macro: {principalTest.userName()}

" to
display the user name. (See attached leak2.war
<http://tomee-openejb.979440.n4.nabble.com/file/t376354/leak2.war> or
https://1drv.ms/u/s!AlHB9FAlFWW_iLJlTcyBEqApE_UAvQ?e=HODheK for example. )

In 8.0.0. this is code will produce an IllegalArgumentException:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: object is not an instance of declaring
class

java.base/jdk.internal.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native

...

Doese someone kow if this code is unsupported in 8.0.0 ? How can I get a
reference to the principal name in 8.0.0.

Best Regards,
