Hi,
I am writing a custom voter implementation and have a question
regarding how configuration attributes are being fed to the voters.
AccessDecisionVoter has a method supports(ConfigAttribute), yet vote()
method is passed ConfigAttributeDefinition, which could potentially
include multiple ConfigAttribute instances within it.
I've initially assumed that voter would be given entire set of config
attributes (e.g. "A" and "B" in the example below), but that's not the
case - at least UnanimousBased decision manager gives voters one
attribute at a time until the decision is made (by creating a
ConfigAttributeDefinition that includes only one config attribute). So
when should voter expect multiple config attributes?
Example:
The configuration below results in config attributes "A" and "B" being
given to CustomVoter.vote() method one at a time. If that's how it's
supposed to work, why vote() method doesn't take ConfigAttribute as an
argument instead?
<bean id="decisionManager"
class="org.acegisecurity.vote.UnanimousBased">
<property name="decisionVoters">
<list>
<bean class="CustomVoter"/>
</list>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="portletDefinitionSecurityInterceptor"
class="org.acegisecurity.intercept.method.aopalliance.MethodSecurityInterceptor">
<property name="authenticationManager"><ref
local="authentication"/></property>
<property name="accessDecisionManager"><ref
local="decisionManager"/></property>
<property name="objectDefinitionSource">
<value>
myImpl.metho*=A,B
</value>
</property>
</bean>
thanks in advance,
-peter.
