  weblogic.security.principal.WLSAbstractPrincipal

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Principal, WLSPrincipal

Direct Known Subclasses:

WLSGroupImpl, WLSUserImpl

public abstract class WLSAbstractPrincipal
extends Object
implements WLSPrincipal

The WLSAbstractPrincipal class is a convenience abstract class that implements a principal whose name field will be signed by the weblogic.security.provider.PrincipalValidatorImpl class. To use this class, you should make the PrincipalValidatorImpl class the runtime class for your Principal Validation provider, or extend that class and make the extended class your Principal Validation provider.

Note: Use of this class is not required by WebLogic Server. It is simply a convenience class.
