Interface GroupManager

All Superinterfaces:

AbstractEntityManager<org.jboss.errai.security.shared.api.Group,GroupManagerSettings>

All Known Subinterfaces:

GroupManagerService

public interface GroupManager
extends AbstractEntityManager<org.jboss.errai.security.shared.api.Group,GroupManagerSettings>

The Groups Manager.

NOTE: Some user management security systems do not provide support for roles and groups, only one of them. Consider that UF roles are the ones defined in the deployment descriptor (web.xml) and present in the org.uberfire.ext.security.server.RolesRegistry. So take care when searching or getting a group, if it's name is registered as a role, it must NOT be considered for management here. This behavior has to be done by each security management provider implementation, depending on the external security system being used.

0.8.0
