Interface WSSubjectWrapper

  • All Superinterfaces:
    java.lang.Cloneable, Token


    public interface WSSubjectWrapper
    extends Token

    WSSubjectWrapper embeds a JAAS Subject. When enabling identity mapping per every RMI/IIOP request, the original caller Subject is embedded in a WSSubjectWrapper object. The WSSubjectWrapper implementation is implementated such that it cannot be propagated to downstream servers. When outbound identity mapping is enabled, the original caller subject is recovered from the WSSubjectWrapper object and set on the thread before invoking downstream servers.
