public abstract class UserPrincipalLookupService extends Object
An object to lookup user and group principals by name. AUserPrincipalrepresents an identity that may be used to determine access rights to objects in a file system. AGroupPrincipalrepresents a group identity. AUserPrincipalLookupServicedefines methods to lookup identities by name or group name (which are typically user or account names). Whether names and group names are case sensitive or not depends on the implementation. The exact definition of a group is implementation specific but typically a group represents an identity created for administrative purposes so as to determine the access rights for the members of the group. In particular it is implementation specific if the namespace for names and groups is the same or is distinct. To ensure consistent and correct behavior across platforms it is recommended that this API be used as if the namespaces are distinct. In other words, thelookupPrincipalByNameshould be used to lookup users, andlookupPrincipalByGroupNameshould be used to lookup groups.- Since:

lookupPrincipalByName
public abstract UserPrincipal lookupPrincipalByName(String name) throws IOException
Lookup a user principal by name.- Parameters:
name- the string representation of the user principal to lookup- Returns:
- a user principal
- Throws:
UserPrincipalNotFoundException- the principal does not existIOException- if an I/O error occursSecurityException- In the case of the default provider, and a security manager is installed, it checksRuntimePermission("lookupUserInformation")
-
lookupPrincipalByGroupName
public abstract GroupPrincipal lookupPrincipalByGroupName(String group) throws IOException
Lookup a group principal by group name.Where an implementation does not support any notion of group then this method always throws
UserPrincipalNotFoundException. Where the namespace for user accounts and groups is the same, then this method is identical to invokinglookupPrincipalByName.- Parameters:
group- the string representation of the group to lookup- Returns:
- a group principal
- Throws:
UserPrincipalNotFoundException- the principal does not exist or is not a groupIOException- if an I/O error occursSecurityException- In the case of the default provider, and a security manager is installed, it checksRuntimePermission("lookupUserInformation")
