Class JCRRepositoryAuthenticator

java.lang.Object

org.apache.james.mailbox.jcr.JCRRepositoryAuthenticator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Authenticator

public class JCRRepositoryAuthenticator
extends Object
implements Authenticator

Authenticator implementation which will try to log in the Repository and obtain a Session. If this fails it will handle the user/pass as invalid. If it success it will logout from the session again and handle the user/pass as valid. This implementation should be used if you want to handle the IMAP Users transparent to the JCR Users. The use of the implementation only makes real sense in conjunction with the direct MailboxSessionJCRRepository implementation (not a subclass).
