Class ResponseContextCollector

java.lang.Object
  |
  +--com.bea.security.ResponseContextCollector

Direct Known Subclasses:: SimpleResponseContextCollector

public abstract class ResponseContextCollector
extends java.lang.Object

The ResponseContextCollector abstract base class is a simple interface for collecting a set of response contexts. This may be used to collect extended decision data from the authorization system. Extended authorization data may be appended to the collector by the configured authorization providers. To request extended decision data from the authorization system, you must include a ResponseContextCollector within the request context supplied to the AuthorizationService.isAccessAllowed call. The element must be specified with the name in ResponseContextCollector.CONTEXT_ATTR_NAME, and a value that is an implementation of this class.

NOTE: The SimpleResponseContextCollector class provides concrete a concrete implementation of a ResponseContextCollector abstract base class.
