Interface WSUserPasswordDigest

public interface WSUserPasswordDigest

The WSUserPasswordDigest interface defines the interface for for tokens that are passed to the assertIdentity call for the wsse:PasswordDigest token type.

Authentication providers generate password digest based on the nonce and creation data ad time in string format and assert identity based on the password digest value passed in this token.

byte[]	getDecodedPasswordDigest() Returns the decoded passsword digest value.
String	getUsername() Returns the name of the user whose identity is being asserted.

Method Detail

getCreatedString

public String getCreatedString()

Returns the digest created date and time as a String. This value is used to compute the digest value. If the computed digest value matches the decoded password digest passed the users identity is asserted.

Returns:

the digest created date and time as a String.

getCreatedTimeInMillis

public long getCreatedTimeInMillis()

Returns the digest created date and time as a long value. This value is used by the provider to check if the token should be considered for asserting the identity of the user.

Returns:

the digest created date and time.

getDecodedNonce

public byte[] getDecodedNonce()

Returns the decoded nonce. This value is used to compute the digest value. If the computed digest value matches the decoded password digest passed the users identity is asserted.

Returns:

the decoded nonce.

getDecodedPasswordDigest

public byte[] getDecodedPasswordDigest()

Returns the decoded passsword digest value. This value is matched with the computed digest value. if the values match the users identity is asserted.

Returns:

the decoded passsword digest value.

getUsername

public String getUsername()

Returns the name of the user whose identity is being asserted.

Returns:

name of the user whose identity is being asserted.
