Interface ImpersonationFilterChain

public interface ImpersonationFilterChain

This interface is used to call the next element in the filter chain for impersonating a user. A reference is passed to the ImpersonationFilter SPI. If an implementation of this SPI calls this method, the corresponding method of the next ImpersonationFilter implementation as defined in the impersonation filter chain (as a property of the Portal Authentication Service) is called. NOTE: This API may only be used in the scope of an HTTP request in WebSphere Portal, i.e. within a theme. The API can not be invoked directly by a custom servlet.

Since:

7.0
