Class ServiceAuth

java.lang.Object
oracle.calendar.soap.client.authentication.ServiceAuth

public class ServiceAuth

extends java.lang.Object

Allows an application to authenticate itself to Calendar Web services.

The properties <ApplicationName> and <ApplicationPassword> are specified in OID and configured in the Calendar Server. Once the application is authenticated, a security token will be generated.

This secuity token is available only through trusted Oracle Application Server/Collaboration Server components. The Security token can expire at any given moment. If so, the Web Services call can be made again; however, there will be no way of knowing the token has expired. If there is a SOAP fault, the call should be tried once and only once.
