Method Detail

setAuthorizedRoles

public final void setAuthorizedRoles(java.lang.String[] authorizedRoles)
Set the roles that this interceptor should treat as authorized.

Parameters:
authorizedRoles - array of role names

preHandle

public final boolean preHandle(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
                               javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response,
                               java.lang.Object handler)
                        throws javax.servlet.ServletException,
                               java.io.IOException
Description copied from interface: HandlerInterceptor
Intercept the execution of a handler. Called after HandlerMapping determined an appropriate handler object, but before HandlerAdapter invokes the handler.

DispatcherServlet processes a handler in an execution chain, consisting of any number of interceptors, with the handler itself at the end. With this method, each interceptor can decide to abort the execution chain, typically sending a HTTP error or writing a custom response.

Specified by:
preHandle in interface HandlerInterceptor
Overrides:
preHandle in class HandlerInterceptorAdapter
Throws:
javax.servlet.ServletException
java.io.IOException

handleNotAuthorized

protected void handleNotAuthorized(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
                                   javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response,
                                   java.lang.Object handler)
                            throws javax.servlet.ServletException,
                                   java.io.IOException
Handle a request that is not authorized according to this interceptor. Default implementation sends HTTP status code 403 ("forbidden").

This method can be overridden to write a custom message, forward or redirect to some error page or login page, or throw a ServletException.

Parameters:
request - current HTTP request
response - current HTTP response
handler - chosen handler to execute, for type and/or instance evaluation
Throws:
javax.servlet.ServletException - if there is an internal error
java.io.IOException - in case of an I/O error when writing the response
