public interface RoleReaderMBean

extends StandardInterface, DescriptorBean

Provides a set of methods for reading policies. An Authorization-provider MBean can optionally extend this MBean. The WebLogic Server Administration Console detects when an Authorization provider extends this MBean and automatically provides a GUI for using these methods.

roleExists

boolean roleExists(String resourceId,
                   String roleName)

Indicates whether a role exists.

Parameters:

resourceId - - The resource that scopes the role. Each role has a scoping resource. A null indicates a global role.

roleName - - The role for which this method searches.

getRoleExpression

String getRoleExpression(String resourceId,
                         String roleName)
                         throws NotFoundException

Returns the expression that defines the role granting policy.

Parameters:

resourceId - - The resource that scopes the new role. Each resource has its predefined 'hierachy'. This new role is applicable to all of the given resource's descendants if any. A null indicates a global role, no scoping resource, which applies to all resources within the container.

roleName - - The role for which this method returns the role granding expression. A null value will trigger NullPointerException.

Throws:

NotFoundException

listRolesForResource

String[] listRolesForResource(String resourceId)

Lists the role names that are scoped by a resource. Returns a null list if there are no roles under this resource scoping.

Parameters:

resourceId - - A resource identifier. A null value specifies a global role.
