Method Detail

initialize

public void initialize(Subject subject,
                       CallbackHandler callbackHandler,
                       Map<String,?> sharedState,
                       Map<String,?> options)

Deprecated.

Initialize this LoginModule.

Specified by:

initialize in interface LoginModule

Parameters:

subject - the Subject to be authenticated.

callbackHandler - a CallbackHandler for communicating with the end user (prompting for usernames and passwords, for example).

sharedState - shared LoginModule state.

options - options specified in the login Configuration for this particular LoginModule.

login

public boolean login()
              throws LoginException

Deprecated.

Authenticate the user (first phase).

The implementation of this method attempts to retrieve the user's Solaris Subject information by making a native Solaris system call.

Specified by:

login in interface LoginModule

Returns:

true in all cases (this LoginModule should not be ignored).

Throws:

FailedLoginException - if attempts to retrieve the underlying system information fail.

LoginException

commit

public boolean commit()
               throws LoginException

Deprecated.

Commit the authentication (second phase).

This method is called if the LoginContext's overall authentication succeeded (the relevant REQUIRED, REQUISITE, SUFFICIENT and OPTIONAL LoginModules succeeded).

If this LoginModule's own authentication attempt succeeded (the importing of the Solaris authentication information succeeded), then this method associates the Solaris Principals with the Subject currently tied to the LoginModule. If this LoginModule's authentication attempted failed, then this method removes any state that was originally saved.

Specified by:

commit in interface LoginModule

Returns:

true if this LoginModule's own login and commit attempts succeeded, or false otherwise.

Throws:

LoginException - if the commit fails

abort

public boolean abort()
              throws LoginException

Deprecated.

Abort the authentication (second phase).

This method is called if the LoginContext's overall authentication failed. (the relevant REQUIRED, REQUISITE, SUFFICIENT and OPTIONAL LoginModules did not succeed).

This method cleans up any state that was originally saved as part of the authentication attempt from the login and commit methods.

Specified by:

abort in interface LoginModule

Returns:

false if this LoginModule's own login and/or commit attempts failed, and true otherwise.

Throws:

LoginException - if the abort fails

logout

public boolean logout()
               throws LoginException

Deprecated.

Logout the user

This method removes the Principals associated with the Subject.

Specified by:

logout in interface LoginModule

Returns:

true in all cases (this LoginModule should not be ignored).

Throws:

LoginException - if the logout fails
