All Superinterfaces:
weblogic.descriptor.DescriptorBean, ListerMBean, weblogic.descriptor.SettableBean, weblogic.management.commo.StandardInterface, UserPasswordCredentialMapReaderMBean

public interface UserPasswordCredentialMapExtendedReaderMBean
extends UserPasswordCredentialMapReaderMBean

Provides a set of methods for reading the credential mappings. Credential mappings match WebLogic users to remote usernames and passwords.

Deprecation of MBeanHome and Type-Safe Interfaces

In addition to being used as a base class that provides functionality to security provider MBeans, JMX applications can use this class directly as a type-safe interface. When used as a type-safe interface, a JMX application imports this class and accesses it through weblogic.management.MBeanHome. As of 9.0, the MBeanHome interface and all type-safe interfaces for WebLogic Server MBeans are deprecated. Instead, JMX applications that interact with WebLogic Server MBeans should use standard JMX design patterns in which clients use the javax.management.MBeanServerConnection interface to discover MBeans, attributes, and attribute types at runtime. For more information, see "Developing Manageable Applications with JMX" on http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/index.html.

Method Detail

listMappingsByPattern

String listMappingsByPattern(String resourceIdPattern,
                             int maxToReturn)
Gets a list of all credential mappings with the resource id matching the specified resource id pattern. Returns a cursor as a string. Use the getCurrentMappingWLSUserName and getCurrentMappingRemoteUserName() and getCurrentMappingResourceID() methods to return the WebLogic username and external user name and the current resource ID for the current item in the list.

Parameters:
resourceIdPattern - - Resource Id string pattern, that can contain '*' - wild card, and '\' - escape character.
maxToReturn - - Maximum number of returned mappings
Returns:
a string which is a cursor used to get each credential mapping.

getCurrentMappingResourceID

String getCurrentMappingResourceID(String cursor)
                                   throws InvalidCursorException
Gets an resource id from a credentials map that has been returned from the listMappingsByPattern method. This method returns the resource id that corresponds to current location in the list.

Parameters:
cursor - - The cursor that has been returned from the listMappings method and the listMappingsByPattern.
Returns:
a string which is the resource id.
Throws:
InvalidCursorException
