Class SecurityConstraint
java.lang.Object
org.apache.tomcat.util.descriptor.web.XmlEncodingBase
org.apache.tomcat.util.descriptor.web.SecurityConstraint
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- Serializable
Representation of a security constraint element for a web application,
 as represented in a 
<security-constraint> element in the
 deployment descriptor.
 WARNING: It is assumed that instances of this class will be created and modified only within the context of a single thread, before the instance is made visible to the remainder of the application. After that, only read access is expected. Therefore, none of the read and write access within this class is synchronized.

SecurityConstraintpublic SecurityConstraint()Construct a new security constraint instance with default values.

- 
Method Details- 
getAllRolespublic boolean getAllRoles()Was the "all roles" wildcard included in this authentication constraint?- Returns:
- trueif all roles
 
- 
getAuthenticatedUserspublic boolean getAuthenticatedUsers()Was the "all authenticated users" wildcard included in this authentication constraint?- Returns:
- trueif all authenticated users
 
- 
getAuthConstraintpublic boolean getAuthConstraint()Return the authorization constraint present flag for this security constraint.- Returns:
- trueif this needs authorization
 
- 
setAuthConstraintpublic void setAuthConstraint(boolean authConstraint) Set the authorization constraint present flag for this security constraint.- Parameters:
- authConstraint- The new value
 
- 
getDisplayName- Returns:
- the display name of this security constraint.
 
- 
setDisplayNameSet the display name of this security constraint.- Parameters:
- displayName- The new value
 
- 
getUserConstraintReturn the user data constraint for this security constraint.- Returns:
- the user constraint
 
- 
setUserConstraintSet the user data constraint for this security constraint.- Parameters:
- userConstraint- The new user data constraint
 
- 
treatAllAuthenticatedUsersAsApplicationRolepublic void treatAllAuthenticatedUsersAsApplicationRole()Called in the unlikely event that an application defines a role named "**".
- 
addAuthRoleAdd an authorization role, which is a role name that will be permitted access to the resources protected by this security constraint.- Parameters:
- authRole- Role name to be added
 
- 
setCharset- Overrides:
- setCharsetin class- XmlEncodingBase
 
- 
addCollectionAdd a new web resource collection to those protected by this security constraint.- Parameters:
- collection- The new web resource collection
 
- 
findAuthRoleCheck a role.- Parameters:
- role- Role name to be checked
- Returns:
- trueif the specified role is permitted access to the resources protected by this security constraint.
 
- 
findAuthRolesReturn the set of roles that are permitted access to the resources protected by this security constraint. If none have been defined, a zero-length array is returned (which implies that all authenticated users are permitted access).- Returns:
- the roles array
 
- 
findCollectionReturn the web resource collection for the specified name, if any; otherwise, returnnull.- Parameters:
- name- Web resource collection name to return
- Returns:
- the collection
 
- 
findCollectionsReturn all of the web resource collections protected by this security constraint. If there are none, a zero-length array is returned.- Returns:
- the collections array
 
- 
includedCheck if the constraint applies to a URI and method.- Parameters:
- uri- Context-relative URI to check
- method- Request method being used
- Returns:
- trueif the specified context-relative URI (and associated HTTP method) are protected by this security constraint.
 
- 
removeAuthRoleRemove the specified role from the set of roles permitted to access the resources protected by this security constraint.- Parameters:
- authRole- Role name to be removed
 
- 
removeCollectionRemove the specified web resource collection from those protected by this security constraint.- Parameters:
- collection- Web resource collection to be removed
 
- 
toStringReturn a String representation of this security constraint.
- 
createConstraintspublic static SecurityConstraint[] createConstraints(ServletSecurityElement element, String urlPattern) Convert aServletSecurityElementto an array ofSecurityConstraint(s).- Parameters:
- element- The element to be converted
- urlPattern- The url pattern that the element should be applied to
- Returns:
- The (possibly zero length) array of constraints that are the equivalent to the input
 
- 
findUncoveredHttpMethodspublic static SecurityConstraint[] findUncoveredHttpMethods(SecurityConstraint[] constraints, boolean denyUncoveredHttpMethods, Log log)
