Enum Constant Detail

PasswordCredential

public static final AuthenticationMechanism.CredentialInterface PasswordCredential

Corresponds to javax.resource.spi.security.PasswordCredential. This is the default credential interface

GSSCredential

public static final AuthenticationMechanism.CredentialInterface GSSCredential

Corresponds to org.ietf.jgss.GSSCredential

GenericCredential

public static final AuthenticationMechanism.CredentialInterface GenericCredential

Corresponds to javax.resource.spi.security.GenericCredential

Method Detail

values

public static AuthenticationMechanism.CredentialInterface[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (AuthenticationMechanism.CredentialInterface c : AuthenticationMechanism.CredentialInterface.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static AuthenticationMechanism.CredentialInterface valueOf(java.lang.String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
