org.ietf.jgss.GSSCredential
interface in
J2SE Version 1.4, which provides similar functionality.public interface GenericCredential
javax.resource.spi.security.GenericCredential
defines a security mechanism independent interface for accessing
security credential of a resource principal.
The GenericCredential
interface provides a Java
wrapper over an underlying mechanism specific representation of
a security credential. For example, the GenericCredential
interface can be used to wrap Kerberos credentials.
The connector architecture does not define any standard format and requirements for security mechanism specific credentials. For example, a security credential wrapped by a GenericCredential interface can have a native representation specific to an operating system.
The GenericCredential interface enables a resource adapter to extract information about a security credential. The resource adapter can then manage EIS sign-on for a resource principal by either:
Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
---|---|
boolean |
equals(Object another)
Deprecated.
Tests if this GenericCredential instance refers to the same entity
as the supplied object.
|
byte[] |
getCredentialData()
Deprecated.
Gets security data for a specific security mechanism represented
by the GenericCredential.
|
String |
getMechType()
Deprecated.
Returns the mechanism type for the GenericCredential instance.
|
String |
getName()
Deprecated.
Returns the name of the resource principal associated
with a GenericCredential instance.
|
int |
hashCode()
Deprecated.
Returns the hash code for this GenericCredential
|
String getName()
String getMechType()
byte[] getCredentialData() throws SecurityException
The getCredentialData method returns the credential representation as an array of bytes. Note that the connector architecture does not define any standard format for the returned credential data.
