Method Detail

processContextAfterCreation

public DirContext processContextAfterCreation(DirContext ctx,
                                              String userDn,
                                              String password)

Description copied from interface: DirContextAuthenticationStrategy

This method is responsible for post-processing the DirContext instance after it has been created. It will be called immediately after the instance has been created. Some authentication mechanisms, e.g. TLS, require particular stuff to happen before the actual target Context is closed. This method provides the possibility to replace or wrap the actual DirContext with a proxy so that any calls on it may be intercepted.

Specified by:

processContextAfterCreation in interface DirContextAuthenticationStrategy

Parameters:

ctx - the freshly created DirContext instance. The actual implementation class (e.g. InitialLdapContext) depends on the ContextSource implementation.

userDn - the user DN to authenticate, as received from the AuthenticationSource of the ContextSource.

password - the password to authenticate with, as received from the AuthenticationSource of the ContextSource.

Returns:

the DirContext, possibly modified, replaced or wrapped.

setupEnvironment

public void setupEnvironment(Hashtable env,
                             String userDn,
                             String password)

Description copied from interface: DirContextAuthenticationStrategy

This method is responsible for preparing the environment to be used when creating the DirContext instance. The base environment (including URL, ContextFactory etc. will already be set, and this method is called just before the actual Context is to be created.

Specified by:

setupEnvironment in interface DirContextAuthenticationStrategy

Parameters:

env - The Hashtable to be sent to the DirContext instance on initialization. Pre-configured with the basic settings; the implementation of this method is responsible for manipulating the environment as appropriate for the particular authentication mechanism.

userDn - the user DN to authenticate, as received from the AuthenticationSource of the ContextSource.

password - the password to authenticate with, as received from the AuthenticationSource of the ContextSource.
