java.lang.Object
  ch.elca.el4j.services.security.authentication.DefaultAuthenticationService

All Implemented Interfaces:

AuthenticationService, InitializingBean

public class DefaultAuthenticationService
extends Object
implements AuthenticationService, InitializingBean

Default implementation of AuthenticationService used for logging in and out.

Simple usage example with a given BeanFactory:

AuthenticationService as = (AuthenticationService) beanFactory.getBean("authenticationService");
as.login(loginContext, callbackHandler);

Both parameters are optional, if they are included in the applicationContext configuration. The bean may contain two properties :

• defaultCallbackHandler, which is the default callback handler to be used for the callbacks of the PAM.
• defaultLoginContext, which defines the default login context to be used for the login.
