Method Detail

getAccessDecisionManager

public org.springframework.security.access.AccessDecisionManager getAccessDecisionManager()

Get the access decision manager that makes flow authorization decisions.

Returns:

the decision manager

setAccessDecisionManager

public void setAccessDecisionManager(org.springframework.security.access.AccessDecisionManager accessDecisionManager)

Set the access decision manager that makes flow authorization decisions.

Parameters:

accessDecisionManager - the decision manager to user

sessionCreating

public void sessionCreating(RequestContext context,
                            FlowDefinition definition)

Description copied from interface: FlowExecutionListener

Called to indicate a new flow definition session is about to be created. Called before the session is created. An exception may be thrown from this method to veto the start operation. Any type of runtime exception can be used for this purpose.

Specified by:

sessionCreating in interface FlowExecutionListener

Overrides:

sessionCreating in class FlowExecutionListenerAdapter

Parameters:

context - the current flow request context

definition - the flow for which a new session is starting

stateEntering

public void stateEntering(RequestContext context,
                          StateDefinition state)
                   throws EnterStateVetoException

Description copied from interface: FlowExecutionListener

Called when a state transitions, after the transition is matched but before the transition occurs.

Specified by:

stateEntering in interface FlowExecutionListener

Overrides:

stateEntering in class FlowExecutionListenerAdapter

Parameters:

context - the current flow request context

state - the proposed state to transition to

Throws:

EnterStateVetoException - when entering the state is not allowed

transitionExecuting

public void transitionExecuting(RequestContext context,
                                TransitionDefinition transition)

Description copied from interface: FlowExecutionListener

Called when a transition is matched but before the transition occurs.

Specified by:

transitionExecuting in interface FlowExecutionListener

Overrides:

transitionExecuting in class FlowExecutionListenerAdapter

Parameters:

context - the current flow request context

transition - the proposed transition

decide

protected void decide(SecurityRule rule,
                      java.lang.Object object)

Performs a Spring Security authorization decision. Decision will use the provided AccessDecisionManager. If no AccessDecisionManager is provided a role based manager will be selected according to the comparison type of the rule.

Parameters:

rule - the rule to base the decision

object - the execution listener phase

getConfigAttributes

protected java.util.Collection<org.springframework.security.access.ConfigAttribute> getConfigAttributes(SecurityRule rule)

Convert SecurityRule into a form understood by Spring Security

Parameters:

rule - the rule to convert

Returns:

list of ConfigAttributes for Spring Security
