## org.mortbay.jetty.security
Class JDBCUserRealm

    java.lang.Object
      org.mortbay.jetty.security.HashUserRealm
          org.mortbay.jetty.security.JDBCUserRealm

All Implemented Interfaces:
  SSORealm, UserRealm

    public class JDBCUserRealm

extends HashUserRealm
implements UserRealm

HashMapped User Realm with JDBC as data source. JDBCUserRealm extends HashUserRealm and adds a method to fetch user information from database. The authenticate() method checks the inherited HashMap for the user. If the user is not found, it will fetch details from the database and populate the inherited HashMap. It then calls the HashUserRealm authenticate() method to perform the actual authentication. Periodically (controlled by configuration parameter), internal hashes are cleared. Caching can be disabled by setting cache refresh interval to zero. Uses one database connection that is initialized at startup. Reconnect on failures. authenticate() is 'synchronized'. An example properties file for configuration is in $JETTY_HOME/etc/jdbcRealm.properties

  Parameters:
    `name` -

### JDBCUserRealm

    public JDBCUserRealm(String name,
                         String config)
                  throws IOException,

                         InstantiationException,
                         IllegalAccessException

  Parameters:
    `name` - Realm name
    `config` - Filename or url of JDBC connection properties file.
  Throws:
    `IOException`
    `ClassNotFoundException`
    `InstantiationException`
    `IllegalAccessException`

Method Detail

### getName

    public String getName()

  Specified by:
    `getName` in interface `UserRealm`
  Overrides:
    `getName` in class `HashUserRealm`
  Returns:
    The realm name.

### setName

    public void setName(String name)

  Overrides:
    `setName` in class `HashUserRealm`
  Parameters:
    `name` - The realm name

### getConfig

    public String getConfig()

  Overrides:
    `getConfig` in class `HashUserRealm`

### setConfig

    public void setConfig(String config)
                   throws IOException

  Load JDBC connection configuration from properties file.

  Overrides:
    `setConfig` in class `HashUserRealm`
  Parameters:
    `config` - Filename or url of user properties file.
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### logout

    public void logout(Principal user)

  Description copied from interface: `UserRealm`
  logout a user Principal. Called by authentication mechanisms (eg FORM) that can detect logout.

  Specified by:
    `logout` in interface `UserRealm`
  Overrides:
    `logout` in class `HashUserRealm`
  Parameters:
    `user` - A Principal previously returned from this realm

### connectDatabase

    public void connectDatabase()

  (re)Connect to database with parameters setup by loadConfig()

### authenticate

    public Principal authenticate(String username,
                                  Object credentials,
                                  Request request)

  Description copied from interface: `UserRealm`
  Authenticate a users credentials. Implementations of this method may adorn the calling context to assoicate it with the authenticated principal (eg ThreadLocals). If such context associations are made, they should be considered valid until a UserRealm.deAuthenticate(UserPrincipal) call is made for this UserPrincipal.

  Specified by:
    `authenticate` in interface `UserRealm`
  Overrides:
    `authenticate` in class `HashUserRealm`
  Parameters:
    `username` - The username.
    `credentials` - The user credentials, normally a String password.
    `request` - The request to be authenticated. Additional parameters may be extracted or set on this request as needed for the authentication mechanism (none required for BASIC and FORM authentication).
  Returns:
    The authenticated UserPrincipal.
