Description

The contents and modification of jaas re-loadable properties are visible in the status, however they are reloaded on next use, which requires a jaas login attempt. For some login modules this may never never be triggered.
By adding the login.config to the watch list, modifications to that directory can trigger a reload and status update based on the configurationFileRefreshPeriod cycle.
This ensures that the status field for reloaded properties can be updated in a timely manner.
