Class MappingMetaData

public class MappingMetaData
extends BasePolicyMetaData

This class represents a <rolemapping> or a <mapping> configuration in an application policy and contains the mapping metadata information extracted by the XB parser.

The following policy excerpt shows an example of <rolemapping> configuration:

  <application-policy xmlns="urn:jboss:security-beans:1.0" name="TestPolicy1">
     <authentication>
        ...
     </authentication>
     ...
     <rolemapping>
        <mapping-module code="org.jboss.security.mapping.RoleMappingModule">
           <module-option name="mappingOption1">mapping.value1</module-option>
           <module-option name="mappingOption2">mapping.value2</module-option>
        </mapping-module>
     </rolemapping>
     ...
  </application-policy>
 

Now an example of a <mapping> configuration:

  <application-policy xmlns="urn:jboss:security-beans:1.0" name="TestPolicy1">
     <authentication>
        ...
     </authentication>
     ...
     <mapping>
        <mapping-module code="org.jboss.security.mapping.RoleMappingModule" type="role">
           <module-option name="mappingOption1">mapping.value1</module-option>
           <module-option name="mappingOption2">mapping.value2</module-option>
        </mapping-module>
     </mapping>
     ...
  </application-policy>
 

As can be noticed, both configurations are very similar. As a matter of fact, any module in a <rolemapping> configuration is actually registered as a <mapping> module of type "role". The metadata that results from the XB parsing is used by the microcontainer to create an instance of IdentityTrustPolicyBean and inject this instance into the ApplicationPolicyBean that represents the application policy as a whole.
