Class ExplorationAuthenticator

      org.nakedobjects.runtime.authentication.standard.exploration.ExplorationAuthenticator

All Implemented Interfaces:

ApplicationScopedComponent, Component, Authenticator

public class ExplorationAuthenticator
extends AuthenticatorAbstract

Creates a session suitable for exploration mode.

If the NakedObjectConfiguration contains the key then returns a MultiUserExplorationSession which encapsulates the details of several users (and their roles). Viewers that are aware of this capability can offer the convenient ability to switch between these users. For viewers that are not aware, the MultiUserExplorationSession appears as a regular session, with the Id of the first user listed.

The format of the key should be:

 &lt:userName> [:<role>[|<role>]...], <userName>...
