This package defines the interfaces implemented by JSR 196 compatible configuration systems.

ClassDescriptionThis interface defines the common functionality implemented by Authentication context configuration objects.This class is used to obtain
AuthConfigProvider
objects that can be used to obtain authentication context configuration objects, that is,ClientAuthConfig
andServerAuthConfig
objects.Represents the layer identifier, application context identifier, and description components of an AuthConfigProvider registration at the factory.This interface is implemented by objects that can be used to obtain authentication context configuration objects, that is,ClientAuthConfig
orServerAuthConfig
objects.This interface encapsulates the configuration of ClientAuthContext objects for a message layer and application context (for example, the messaging context of a specific application, or set of applications).This ClientAuthContext class encapsulates ClientAuthModules that are used to secure service requests made by a client, and to validate any responses received to those requests.An implementation of this interface may be associated with an AuthConfigProvider registration at an AuthConfigFactory at the time the AuthConfigProvider is obtained for use from the factory.This interface describes a configuration of ServerAuthConfiguration objects for a message layer and application context (for example, the messaging context of a specific application, or set of applications).This ServerAuthContext class encapsulates ServerAuthModules that are used to validate service requests received from clients, and to secure any response returned for those requests.
