Interface DynamicMetadataResolver

  • All Superinterfaces:
    net.shibboleth.utilities.java.support.component.Component, net.shibboleth.utilities.java.support.component.IdentifiedComponent, MetadataResolver, net.shibboleth.utilities.java.support.resolver.Resolver<EntityDescriptor,​net.shibboleth.utilities.java.support.resolver.CriteriaSet>
    public interface DynamicMetadataResolver
extends MetadataResolver
    Marker interface for MetadataResolver implementations which resolve metadata by dynamically querying for the requested data individually at the time of the resolution operation, for example by invoking a request to a remote network-based metadata publishing endpoint or metadata oracle service. Implementations may however cache the results of previous resolutions so that subsequent queries may be answered locally.
