Interface AuthenticationSuccessHandler

All Known Implementing Classes:

ForwardAuthenticationSuccessHandler, SavedRequestAwareAuthenticationSuccessHandler, SimpleUrlAuthenticationSuccessHandler

public interface AuthenticationSuccessHandler

Strategy used to handle a successful user authentication.

Implementations can do whatever they want but typical behaviour would be to control the navigation to the subsequent destination (using a redirect or a forward). For example, after a user has logged in by submitting a login form, the application needs to decide where they should be redirected to afterwards (see AbstractAuthenticationProcessingFilter and subclasses). Other logic may also be included if required.
