Package weblogic.security.principal Description

This package includes interfaces and classes for those who are interested in understanding how the WebLogic Principal Validation provider works, and for those interested in developing a custom Principal Validation provider.

The interfaces and classes in this package are provided as a convenience and are not required by WebLogic Server. The interfaces and classes in this package all use the sign method in the PrincipalValidatorImpl class to generate a random seed and compute a digest based on that random seed.
