| <div class="block">The main Java EE Security API package. This package contains classes and interfaces that span authentication, |
| authorization and identity concerns. |
| |
| <h2>EL Support in annotations</h2> |
| |
| This specification supports the use of expression language 3.0 in annotations. This is described in more detail below: |
| |
| <h3>...Definition annotations</h3> |
| |
| The Java EE Security API features several annotations, with names that end with <code>Definition</code>, |
| which, when used, make CDI beans available. For completeness, this concerns the following annotations: |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li><a href="../../../javax/security/enterprise/identitystore/DatabaseIdentityStoreDefinition.html" title="annotation in javax.security.enterprise.identitystore"><code>DatabaseIdentityStoreDefinition</code></a></li> |
| <li><a href="../../../javax/security/enterprise/identitystore/LdapIdentityStoreDefinition.html" title="annotation in javax.security.enterprise.identitystore"><code>LdapIdentityStoreDefinition</code></a></li> |
| <li><a href="../../../javax/security/enterprise/authentication/mechanism/http/BasicAuthenticationMechanismDefinition.html" title="annotation in javax.security.enterprise.authentication.mechanism.http"><code>BasicAuthenticationMechanismDefinition</code></a></li> |
| <li><a href="../../../javax/security/enterprise/authentication/mechanism/http/CustomFormAuthenticationMechanismDefinition.html" title="annotation in javax.security.enterprise.authentication.mechanism.http"><code>CustomFormAuthenticationMechanismDefinition</code></a></li> |
| <li><a href="../../../javax/security/enterprise/authentication/mechanism/http/FormAuthenticationMechanismDefinition.html" title="annotation in javax.security.enterprise.authentication.mechanism.http"><code>FormAuthenticationMechanismDefinition</code></a></li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| For all attributes of type <code>String</code> on these annotations, Expression Language 3.0 expressions can be used. |
| All named CDI beans are available to that expression, as well as the default classes as specified by EL 3.0 for the |
| <code>ELProcessor</code>. |
| |
| <p> |
| Expressions can be either immediate (<code>${}</code> syntax), or deferred (<code>#{}</code> syntax). Immediate |
| expressions are evaluated once when the bean instance corresponding to the "...Definition" annotation is actually created. |
| Since such beans are application scoped, that means once for the entire application. Deferred expressions are evaluated in |
| each request where the security runtime needs to use the value of these attributes. |
| |
| <p> |
| Attributes that are documented as being EL alternatives to non-<code>String</code> type |
| attributes (attributes for which the name ends with <code>Expression</code>, hereafter called EL alternative attribute) |
| MUST evaluate to the same type as the attribute they are an alternative to. If the EL alternative attribute has a |
| non empty value, it takes precedence over the attribute which it is an alternative to. |
| |
| <p> |
| The EL alternative attribute MUST contain a valid EL expression. Attributes of type string that are not EL alternative |
| attributes can contain either an expression or a string value that is not an expression. |
| |
| <h3>Interceptor annotations</h3> |
| |
| The Java EE Security API features several annotations with attributes that denote interceptor spec interceptors. |
| For completeness, this concerns the following annotations: |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li><a href="../../../javax/security/enterprise/authentication/mechanism/http/LoginToContinue.html" title="annotation in javax.security.enterprise.authentication.mechanism.http"><code>LoginToContinue</code></a></li> |
| <li><a href="../../../javax/security/enterprise/authentication/mechanism/http/RememberMe.html" title="annotation in javax.security.enterprise.authentication.mechanism.http"><code>RememberMe</code></a></li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p> |
| Expression language is supported for these annotations as well, but in a slightly different way. |
| See the javadoc of both these annotations for how the expression language support differs.</div> |
