| 63 | * algorithm. | |
| 64 | * </p> | |
| 65 | * | |
| 66 | * <P> | |
| 67 | * This will generally be a one-way message digest such as MD5 or SHA, but | |
| 68 | * may also be a plaintext variant which does no encoding at all, but | |
| 69 | * rather returns the same password it was fed. The latter is useful to | |
| 70 | * plug in when the original password must be stored as-is. | |
| 71 | * </p> | |
| 72 | * | |
| 73 | * <p> | |
| 74 | * The specified salt will potentially be used by the implementation to | |
| 75 | * "salt" the initial value before encoding. A salt is usually a | |
| 76 | * user-specific value which is added to the password before the digest is | |
| 77 | * computed. This means that computation of digests for common dictionary | |
| 78 | * words will be different than those in the backend store, because the | |
| 79 | * dictionary word digests will not reflect the addition of the salt. If a | |
| 80 | * per-user salt is used (rather than a system-wide salt), it also means | |
| 81 | * users with the same password will have different digest encoded | |
| 82 | * passwords in the backend store. | |

| 85 | * <P> | |
| 86 | * If a salt value is provided, the same salt value must be use when | |
| 87 | * calling the {@link #isPasswordValid(String, String, Object)} method. | |
| 88 | * Note that a specific implementation may choose to ignore the salt value | |
| 89 | * (via <code>null</code>), or provide its own. | |
