Class CachingSecurityManager

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Authenticator, Authorizer, CacheManagerAware, SecurityManager, SessionManager, Destroyable
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    RealmSecurityManager


    public abstract class CachingSecurityManager
    extends Object
    implements SecurityManager, Destroyable, CacheManagerAware
    A very basic starting point for the SecurityManager interface that merely provides logging and caching support. All actual SecurityManager method implementations are left to subclasses.

    Change in 1.0 - a default CacheManager instance is not created by default during instantiation. As caching strategies can vary greatly depending on an application's needs, a CacheManager instance must be explicitly configured if caching across the framework is to be enabled.
    Since:
    0.9
