Class JAASUserProvider

java.lang.Object

org.togglz.core.user.jaas.JAASUserProvider

All Implemented Interfaces:

UserProvider

public class JAASUserProvider
extends Object
implements UserProvider

This implementation supports looking up the current user the JAAS AccessControlContext. The class currently doesn't support determining whether a user is a feature admin and therefore always sets it to false. Overriding #isFeatureAdmin(String) allows to change the default behavior.
