      • getAttribute

        java.lang.String getAttribute()
        If the ConfigAttribute can be represented as a String and that String is sufficient in precision to be relied upon as a configuration parameter by a RunAsManager, AccessDecisionManager or AccessDecisionManager delegate, this method should return such a String.

        If the ConfigAttribute cannot be expressed with sufficient precision as a String, null should be returned. Returning null will require any relying classes to specifically support the ConfigAttribute implementation, so returning null should be avoided unless actually required.

        Returns:
        a representation of the configuration attribute (or null if the configuration attribute cannot be expressed as a String with sufficient precision).
