All Implemented Interfaces:

public final class ServerResource
extends ResourceBase

The ServerResource class is used by a container to specify the Server 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 a Server resource is:
type=<svr>, application=, server=MyServer, action=shutdown

ServerResource

public ServerResource(String application,
                      String server,
                      String action)

Constructs a new ServerResource with a target name composed from the application, server, and action parameters.

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. A value of null indicates that the resource is not deployed as part of an application.

server - a String representing the name of the Server resource.

action - a String representing the name of the action being requested on the resource. A value of null indicates that the security policy for the resource pertains to all actions that match the other parameters of the resource specification, without consideration for the action name. Valid values for this parameter are restricted to the following:

• boot
• shutdown
• lock
• unlock

initialize

public void initialize(String application,
                       String server,
                       String action)

Deprecated. As of 04/01/02, the constructor should be used instead.

Replaces application, server, and action parameters of the resource with the specified values.

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. A value of null indicates that the resource is not deployed as part of an application.

server - a String representing the name of the Server resource.

action - a String representing the name of the action being requested on the resource. A value of null indicates that the security policy for the resource pertains to all actions that match the other parameters of the resource specification, without consideration for the action name. Valid values for this parameter are restricted to the following:

• boot
• shutdown
• lock
• unlock

getType

public String getType()

Gets the type of this resource (ServerResource).

Returns:

the type of this resource, represented as a String.

makeParent

protected Resource makeParent()

Gets a Resource object that represents the parent of the current ServerResource. If the resource does not have a parent, the value of null must be returned.

The parentage hierarchy for the ServerResource is:

type=<svr>, application=, server=MyServer, action=shutdown
type=<svr>, application=, server=MyServer
type=<svr>, action=shutdown
type=<svr>


The old deprecated parentage hierarchy for the ServerResource (with -Dweblogic.security.scopeResourceAction) is:

type=<svr>, application=, server=MyServer
, action=shutdown
type=<svr>, application=, server=MyServer
type=<svr>


Overrides:

makeParent in class ResourceBase

Returns:

the Resource object of the parent resource.

getRepeatingFieldIndex

public int getRepeatingFieldIndex()

Description copied from interface: SelfDescribingResource

getRepeatingFieldIndex returns an index into the array returned by getKeys() that signifies what part of the Resource's fields repeat as the hierarchy is traversed. For example, in the URLResource, the httpMethod is repeated as the hierarchy is walked. A value of -1 indicates that there are no repeating fields.

Specified by:

getRepeatingFieldIndex in interface SelfDescribingResource

Overrides:

getRepeatingFieldIndex in class ResourceBase

Returns:

the index of the repeating fields or -1 if none

getRepeatingFieldTerminatingIndex

public int getRepeatingFieldTerminatingIndex()

Description copied from interface: SelfDescribingResource

The field returned by getRepeatingFieldIndex is repeated as the Resource is shortened up to and including this field index. After this field index the repetition is no longer applied.

Specified by:

getRepeatingFieldTerminatingIndex in interface SelfDescribingResource

Overrides:

getRepeatingFieldTerminatingIndex in class ResourceBase

Returns:

an int describing the terminating index or getKeys().length if none

getKeys

public String[] getKeys()

Gets keys for the ServerResource.

Specified by:

getKeys in interface Resource

Specified by:

getKeys in class ResourceBase

Returns:

an array of Strings containing the ServerResource's keys.

getServerName

public String getServerName()

Gets the name of the ServerResource.

Returns:

the name of the ServerResource, represented as a String.

getActionName

public String getActionName()

Gets the name of the action being requested on the ServerResource.

Returns:

the name of the action being requested on the ServerResource, represented as a String.

getApplicationName

public String getApplicationName()

Gets the name of the application associated with the ServerResource.

Returns:

the name of the application associated with the ServerResource, represented as a String.

writeResourceString

protected void writeResourceString(StringBuffer buf)

Writes a string representation of the resource to buffer.

Each type of resource is first printed in angled brackets. Then, each key is printed, in order, along with it's value. The keys are comma-separated. Values that are lists are comma-separated and delineated by open and close curly braces. Each value is printed as is, except that commas (,), open braces ({), close braces (}), and back slashes (\) are each escaped with a backslash.

Note: Because this method produces a result based on the concatenation of strings, it may be expensive in terms of performance.

Overrides:

writeResourceString in class ResourceBase

Parameters:

buf - buffer to write to.

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Compares this resource to the resource in the specified object.

Specified by:

equals in interface Resource

Overrides:

equals in class ResourceBase

Parameters:

obj - the other resource with which to compare this resource.

Returns:

TRUE if the resource passed in matches this resource, and FALSE otherwise.
