Method Detail

getSecurityDomain

String getSecurityDomain()

isValid

boolean isValid(Principal principal,
              Object credential,
              Subject activeSubject)

The isValid method is invoked to see if a user identity and associated credentials as known in the operational environment are valid proof of the user identity.

Parameters:

principal - - the user identity in the operation environment

credential - - the proof of user identity as known in the operation environment

activeSubject - - the Subject which should be populated with the validated Subject contents. A JAAS based implementation would typically populate the activeSubject with the LoginContext.login result.

Returns:

true if the principal, credential pair is valid, false otherwise.

doesUserHaveRole

boolean doesUserHaveRole(Principal principal,
                       Set<Principal> roles)

Validates the application domain roles to which the operational environment Principal belongs.

Parameters:

principal - the caller principal as known in the operation environment.

roles - The Set<java.security.Principal> for the application domain roles that the principal is to be validated against.

Returns:

true if the principal has at least one of the roles in the roles set, false otherwise.

getUserRoles

Set<Principal> getUserRoles(Principal principal)

Return the set of domain roles the principal has been assigned.

Parameters:

principal - principal

Returns:

The Set<java.security.Principal> for the application domain roles that the principal has been assigned.

pushSubjectContext

void pushSubjectContext(Subject subject,
                      Principal principal,
                      Object credential)

Push the provided subject into the current security context; if that's not set yet, also creates a new security context and associates it with the current thread.

Parameters:

subject - subject

principal - principal

credential - credential
