org.acegisecurity.intercept.method
Class MethodDefinitionMap

java.lang.Object
  org.acegisecurity.intercept.method.AbstractMethodDefinitionSource
      org.acegisecurity.intercept.method.MethodDefinitionMap

All Implemented Interfaces:

MethodDefinitionSource, ObjectDefinitionSource

public class MethodDefinitionMap
extends AbstractMethodDefinitionSource

Stores a ConfigAttributeDefinition for each method signature defined in a bean context.

For consistency with MethodDefinitionAttributes as well as support for MethodDefinitionSourceAdvisor, this implementation will return a ConfigAttributeDefinition containing all configuration attributes defined against:

• The method-specific attributes defined for the intercepted method of the intercepted class.
• The method-specific attributes defined by any explicitly implemented interface if that interface contains a method signature matching that of the intercepted method.

In general you should therefore define the interface methods of your secure objects, not the implementations. For example, define com.company.Foo.findAll=ROLE_TEST but not com.company.FooImpl.findAll=ROLE_TEST.

public MethodDefinitionMap()

Method Detail

getConfigAttributeDefinitions

public Iterator getConfigAttributeDefinitions()

Obtains the configuration attributes explicitly defined against this bean. This method will not return implicit configuration attributes that may be returned by lookupAttributes(Method) as it does not have access to a method invocation at this time.

Returns:

the attributes explicitly defined against this bean

getMethodMapSize

public int getMethodMapSize()

Obtains the number of configuration attributes explicitly defined against this bean. This method will not return implicit configuration attributes that may be returned by lookupAttributes(Method) as it does not have access to a method invocation at this time.

Returns:

the number of configuration attributes explicitly defined against this bean

addSecureMethod

public void addSecureMethod(Method method,
                            ConfigAttributeDefinition attr)

Add configuration attributes for a secure method. Method names can end or start with * for matching multiple methods.

Parameters:

method - the method to be secured

attr - required authorities associated with the method

addSecureMethod

public void addSecureMethod(String name,
                            ConfigAttributeDefinition attr)

Add configuration attributes for a secure method. Method names can end or start with * for matching multiple methods.

Parameters:

name - class and method name, separated by a dot

attr - required authorities associated with the method

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - DOCUMENT ME!

addSecureMethod

public void addSecureMethod(Class clazz,
                            String mappedName,
                            ConfigAttributeDefinition attr)

Add configuration attributes for a secure method. Method names can end or start with * for matching multiple methods.

Parameters:

clazz - target interface or class

mappedName - mapped method name

attr - required authorities associated with the method

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - DOCUMENT ME!

lookupAttributes

protected ConfigAttributeDefinition lookupAttributes(Method method)

Description copied from class: AbstractMethodDefinitionSource

Performs the actual lookup of the relevant ConfigAttributeDefinition for the specified Method which is subject of the method invocation.

Provided so subclasses need only to provide one basic method to properly interface with the MethodDefinitionSource.

Returns null if there are no matching attributes for the method.

Specified by:

lookupAttributes in class AbstractMethodDefinitionSource

Parameters:

method - the method being invoked for which configuration attributes should be looked up

Returns:

the ConfigAttributeDefinition that applies to the specified Method
