public final class AdminResource

extends ResourceBase

The AdminResource class is used by a container to specify the Administrative resource (and method related to the resource) that a caller is attempting to access.

The toString format (which is produced by the ResourceBase class) for an Administrative resource is:
type=<adm>, category=UserLockout, realm=myRealm, action=unlockuser or
type=<adm>, category=Configuration
type=<adm>, category=FileUpload
type=<adm>, category=FileDownload
type=<adm>, category=ViewLog
(The former is generic and used with several different categories, while the latter is used to access MBean fields.)
