public class: AuthenticationException [javadoc |
source]
java.lang.Object
java.lang.Throwable
java.lang.Exception
java.io.IOException
javax.security.sasl.SaslException
javax.security.sasl.AuthenticationException
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
This exception is thrown by a SASL mechanism implementation
to indicate that the SASL
exchange has failed due to reasons related to authentication, such as
an invalid identity, passphrase, or key.
Note that the lack of an AuthenticationException does not mean that
the failure was not due to an authentication error. A SASL mechanism
implementation might throw the more general SaslException instead of
AuthenticationException if it is unable to determine the nature
of the failure, or if does not want to disclose the nature of
the failure, for example, due to security reasons.
