Class SecurityConstraint

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    SecurityConstraintDecorator

    public class SecurityConstraint
    extends Object
    implements Serializable
    Representation of a security constraint element for a web application, as represented in a <security-constraint> element in the deployment descriptor.

    WARNING: It is assumed that instances of this class will be created and modified only within the context of a single thread, before the instance is made visible to the remainder of the application. After that, only read access is expected. Therefore, none of the read and write access within this class is synchronized.
