Method Detail

applySecurity

void applySecurity(javax.portlet.PortletRequest request,
                 MDEXState mdexState,
                 Query query)
                   throws BddSecurityException

Applies security filters to a provided Query. This takes a PortletRequest and an MDEXState as parameters, as it is likely that any implementation of this method will make use of user session information (retrieved from the request) and data source configuration information stored on the MDEXState object defining the target server for the given Query.

Parameters:

request - the PortletRequest

mdexState - the MDEXState object representing the target server and its current query state

query - the Query to which security filters should be applied

Throws:

BddSecurityException - on error parsing, processing, or applying security
