  - - org.apache.catalina.realm.RealmBase
    - - org.apache.catalina.realm.JDBCRealm

All Implemented Interfaces:

MBeanRegistration, GSSRealm, JmxEnabled, Lifecycle, Realm

Deprecated.
Will be removed in Tomcat 10 onwards. Use the DataSourceRealm instead.
```
@Deprecated
public class JDBCRealm
extends RealmBase
```
Implementation of Realm that works with any JDBC supported database. See the JDBCRealm.howto for more details on how to set up the database and for configuration options.
For a Realm implementation that supports connection pooling and doesn't require synchronisation of authenticate(), getPassword(), roles() and getPrincipal() or the ugly connection logic use the DataSourceRealm.
