Class PrincipalBearingCredentials

java.lang.Object
  org.jasig.cas.adaptors.trusted.authentication.principal.PrincipalBearingCredentials

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Credentials

public final class PrincipalBearingCredentials
extends Object
implements Credentials

Credentials that bear the fully resolved and authenticated Principal, or an indication that there is no such Principal. These Credentials are a mechanism to pass into CAS information about an authentication and Principal resolution that has already happened in layers in front of CAS, e.g. by means of a Java Servlet Filter or by means of container authentication in the servlet container or Apache layers. DO NOT accept these Credentials from arbitrary web-servicey calls to CAS. Rather, the code constructing these Credentials must be trusted to perform appropriate authentication before issuing these credentials.
