We switched to the Inspektr package for a few reasons:

1. It provides end-to-end auditing, it can track user, ip address, and action all in one transaction
2. its an open-source library developed by two coworkers and myself that can be incorporated into other projects, allowing for knowledge re-use.  Eventually the tool will include a web application to view the results.
3. supports statistics gathering
4. code is completely externalized from the CAS code so enabling/disabling it adds/removes the code rather than the events being fired anyway and then ignored
5. its generic so we can add new things to audit without creating new events
6. The code in the source tree was actually sample/example code on how to do auditing using events, and not designed for production use (though it was capable of being used that way). We stated this when it was put in place in 3.0, but I'm sure by now everyone's forgotten about that :-)

Scott,

Was there anything wrong with EventHandler or TicketEvent?  I ask because I have used them, and now upgrading to 3.2.1 will be more difficult.  :-(

Cyrille,

Since CAS is now using the Inspektr package (detailed here: http://code.google.com/p/inspektr/) that's our preferred way of doing things.  You'll merely need to write an AuditTrailManager that does the JMS call.

   Hello,

   I would like to capture login and logout events in CAS Server to broadcast these events to a JMS Topic (backend data preloading, etc).

   The package org.jasig.cas.event (AuthenticationEvent, TicketEvent and EventHandler interface) has been removed in CAS 3.2, the SVN comment says "started move to Google Code Inspektr library".

   What is the preferred way to integrate a login/logout/ticket event listener in CAS ?

   Thanks in advance,

   Cyrille
