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

The URLResource class should be used in place of this WebResource class, which is now deprecated.

The toString format (which is produced by the ResourceBase class) for a Web resource is:
type=<web>, application=myApp, uri=/mywebapp, webResource=securityConstraintName, httpMethod=GET

Constructor Detail

WebResource

public WebResource(java.lang.String application,
                   java.lang.String uri,
                   java.lang.String webResource,
                   java.lang.String httpMethod,
                   java.lang.String transportType)

Deprecated.

Constructs a new WebResource with a target name composed from the application, uri, webResource, httpMethod, and transportType parameters.

For example, if the web.xml deployment descriptor in mywebapp.war (which is inside myApp.ear) contains the following elements:

<web-app>
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>MyResource</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>MyRole</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
...
</web-app>

If the URL to access the resource is http://MyServer:MyPort/mywebapp/foo/bar/my.jsp?x=y, then the context path is "/mywebapp", the servlet path is "/foo/bar/my.jsp", and the path info is "" (null).

Finally, the WebResource is represented as type=<web>, application=myApp, uri=/mywebapp, webResource=myResource, httpMethod=GET.

Parameters:

application - a String indicating the name of the application in which the resource is deployed, as it appears in the corresponding <display-name> element. The <display-name> element is associated with an <application> element in the deployment descriptor, in an .ear file.

uri - a String representing the URI of the Web component.

webResource - a String representing the name of the Web resource, as it appears in the corresponding <web-resource-name> element in the deployment descriptor.

httpMethod - a String representing the name of the HTTP method on the Web resource, as it appears in the corresponding <http-method> element in the deployment descriptor. A value of null indicates that the security policy for the resource pertains to all methods that match the other parameters of the resource specification, without consideration for the method name.

transportType - a String representing the transport guarantee required to access the Web resource, as it appears in the corresponding <transport-guarantee> element in the deployment descriptor. A value of null indicates that the associated method of the Web resource can be accessed over any transport. Valid values for this parameter are restricted to the following:

• INTEGRAL
• CONFIDENTIAL
