All Known Implementing Classes:

FMResourceMapper

public interface ResourceMapper

This interface defines the SPI for pluggable implementations to map XACML context Resource to native resource and service name

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
void	initialize(String pdpEntityId, String pepEntityId, Map properties)	Initializes the mapper implementation.
String[]	mapToNativeResource(Resource xacmlContextResource)	Returns native resource and service name
Resource	mapToXACMLResoure(String resourceName, String serviceName)	Returns XACML context Resource

Method Detail

initialize

void initialize(String pdpEntityId,
                String pepEntityId,
                Map properties)
         throws XACMLException

Initializes the mapper implementation. This would be called immediately after constructing an instance of the implementation.

Parameters:

pdpEntityId - EntityID of PDP

pepEntityId - EntityID of PEP

properties - configuration properties

Throws:

XACMLException - if can not initialize

mapToNativeResource

String[] mapToNativeResource(Resource xacmlContextResource)
                      throws XACMLException

Returns native resource and service name

Parameters:

xacmlContextResource - XACML context Resource

Returns:

native resource and service name. Returned object is an array of String objects. First element would be resource name. Second element would be service name.

Throws:

XACMLException - if can not map to native resource and service name

mapToXACMLResoure

Resource mapToXACMLResoure(String resourceName,
                           String serviceName)
                    throws XACMLException

Returns XACML context Resource

Parameters:

resourceName - native resource name

serviceName - native service name the requested resource belongs to

Returns:

XACML context Resource

Throws:

XACMLException - if can not map to XACML context Resource
