authenticate

public net.sf.acegisecurity.Authentication authenticate(net.sf.acegisecurity.Authentication authentication)
                                                 throws net.sf.acegisecurity.AuthenticationException

If the supplied authentication token contains a certificate then this will be passed to the configured X509AuthoritiesPopulator to obtain the user details and authorities for the user identified by the certificate.

If no certificate is present (for example, if the filter is applied to an HttpRequest for which client authentication hasn't been configured in the container) then a BadCredentialsException will be raised.

Specified by:

authenticate in interface net.sf.acegisecurity.providers.AuthenticationProvider

supports

public boolean supports(java.lang.Class authentication)

Description copied from interface: net.sf.acegisecurity.providers.AuthenticationProvider

Returns true if this AuthenticationProvider supports the indicated Authentication object.

Returning true does not guarantee an AuthenticationProvider will be able to authenticate the presented instance of the Authentication class. It simply indicates it can support closer evaluation of it. An AuthenticationProvider can still return null from the AuthenticationProvider.authenticate(Authentication)>AuthenticationProvider.authenticate(Authentication) 55 method to indicate another AuthenticationProvider should be tried.

Selection of an AuthenticationProvider capable of performing authentication is conducted at runtime the ProviderManager.

Specified by:

supports in interface net.sf.acegisecurity.providers.AuthenticationProvider
