| /** |
| * An <tt>Account</tt> is a convenience interface that extends both {@link AuthenticationInfo} and |
| * {@link org.apache.ki.authz.AuthorizationInfo} and represents authentication and authorization for a <em>single account</em> in a |
| * <em>single Realm</em>. |
| * <p/> |
| * This interface can be useful when an Realm implementation finds it more convenient to use a single object to |
| * encapsulate both the authentication and authorization information used by both authc and authz operations. |
| * <p/> |
| * <b>Please Note</b>: Since Ki sometimes logs account operations, please ensure your Account's <code>toString()</code> |
| * implementation does <em>not</em> print out account credentials (password, etc), as these might be viewable to |
| * someone reading your logs. This is good practice anyway, and account principals should rarely (if ever) be printed |
| * out for any reason. If you're using Ki's default implementations of this interface, they only ever print the |
| * account {@link #getPrincipals() principals}, so you do not need to do anything additional. |
