Class MessageExpressionVoter<T>

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.security.messaging.access.expression.MessageExpressionVoter<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

AccessDecisionVoter<org.springframework.messaging.Message<T>>

public class MessageExpressionVoter<T>
extends Object
implements AccessDecisionVoter<org.springframework.messaging.Message<T>>

Voter which handles Message authorisation decisions. If a MessageExpressionConfigAttribute is found, then its expression is evaluated. If true, ACCESS_GRANTED is returned. If false, ACCESS_DENIED is returned. If no MessageExpressionConfigAttribute is found, then ACCESS_ABSTAIN is returned.

Since:

4.0

Method Details

vote

public int vote(Authentication authentication,
 org.springframework.messaging.Message<T> message,
 Collection<ConfigAttribute> attributes)

Description copied from interface: AccessDecisionVoter

Indicates whether or not access is granted.

The decision must be affirmative (ACCESS_GRANTED), negative ( ACCESS_DENIED) or the AccessDecisionVoter can abstain ( ACCESS_ABSTAIN) from voting. Under no circumstances should implementing classes return any other value. If a weighting of results is desired, this should be handled in a custom AccessDecisionManager instead.

Unless an AccessDecisionVoter is specifically intended to vote on an access control decision due to a passed method invocation or configuration attribute parameter, it must return ACCESS_ABSTAIN. This prevents the coordinating AccessDecisionManager from counting votes from those AccessDecisionVoters without a legitimate interest in the access control decision.

Whilst the secured object (such as a MethodInvocation) is passed as a parameter to maximise flexibility in making access control decisions, implementing classes should not modify it or cause the represented invocation to take place (for example, by calling MethodInvocation.proceed()).

Specified by:

vote in interface AccessDecisionVoter<T>

Parameters:

authentication - the caller making the invocation

message - the secured object being invoked

attributes - the configuration attributes associated with the secured object

Returns:

either AccessDecisionVoter.ACCESS_GRANTED, AccessDecisionVoter.ACCESS_ABSTAIN or AccessDecisionVoter.ACCESS_DENIED

supports

public boolean supports(ConfigAttribute attribute)

Description copied from interface: AccessDecisionVoter

Indicates whether this AccessDecisionVoter is able to vote on the passed ConfigAttribute.

This allows the AbstractSecurityInterceptor to check every configuration attribute can be consumed by the configured AccessDecisionManager and/or RunAsManager and/or AfterInvocationManager.

Specified by:

supports in interface AccessDecisionVoter<T>

Parameters:

attribute - a configuration attribute that has been configured against the AbstractSecurityInterceptor

Returns:

true if this AccessDecisionVoter can support the passed configuration attribute

supports

public boolean supports(Class<?> clazz)

Description copied from interface: AccessDecisionVoter

Indicates whether the AccessDecisionVoter implementation is able to provide access control votes for the indicated secured object type.

Specified by:

supports in interface AccessDecisionVoter<T>

Parameters:

clazz - the class that is being queried

Returns:

true if the implementation can process the indicated class

setExpressionHandler
