----------------------------------------
Summary: Add requireAuthorization method to IAuthorizer
Key: CASSANDRA-10852
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10852
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Mike Adamson
Assignee: Mike Adamson
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 3.2
The {{IAuthenticator}} interface has a {{requireAuthentication}} to indicate
whether an implementation requires an explicit login. For consistency it would
be useful for 3rd party implementers if the {{IAuthorizer}} had a similar
method {{requireAuthorization}} that would indicate if the implementation
required explicit authorization.
This would mean that we could remove and explicit {{instanceof}} checks for
{{AllowAllAuthenticator}} and {{AllowAllAuthorizer}} in the code.
