Class JXLoginPane

All Implemented Interfaces:
ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable, Accessible, Scrollable

@JavaBean public class JXLoginPane extends JXPanel

JXLoginPane is a specialized JPanel that implements a Login dialog with support for saving passwords supplied for future use in a secure manner. LoginService is invoked to perform authentication and optional PasswordStore can be provided to store the user login information.

In order to perform the authentication, JXLoginPane calls the authenticate method of the LoginService . In order to perform the persistence of the password, JXLoginPane calls the put method of the PasswordStore object that is supplied. If the PasswordStore is null, then the password is not saved. Similarly, if a PasswordStore is supplied and the password is null, then the PasswordStore will be queried for the password using the get method. Example:


         final JXLoginPane panel = new JXLoginPane(new LoginService() {
                      public boolean authenticate(String name, char[] password,
                                      String server) throws Exception {
                              // perform authentication and return true on success.
                              return false;
                      }});
      final JFrame frame = JXLoginPane.showLoginFrame(panel);

  • Constructor Details

    • JXLoginPane

      public JXLoginPane()
      Create a JXLoginPane that always accepts the user, never stores passwords or user ids, and has no target servers.

      This constructor should NOT be used in a real application. It is provided for compliance to the bean specification and for use with visual editors.

    • JXLoginPane

      public JXLoginPane(LoginService service)
      Create a JXLoginPane with the specified LoginService that does not store user ids or passwords and has no target servers.
      Parameters:
      service - the LoginService to use for logging in
    • JXLoginPane

      public JXLoginPane(LoginService service, PasswordStore passwordStore, UserNameStore userStore)
      Create a JXLoginPane with the specified LoginService, PasswordStore, and UserNameStore, but without a server list.

      If you do not want to store passwords or user ids, those parameters can be null. SaveMode is autoconfigured from passed in store parameters.

      Parameters:
      service - the LoginService to use for logging in
      passwordStore - the PasswordStore to use for storing password information
      userStore - the UserNameStore to use for storing user information
    • JXLoginPane

      public JXLoginPane(LoginService service, PasswordStore passwordStore, UserNameStore userStore, List<String> servers)
      Create a JXLoginPane with the specified LoginService, PasswordStore, UserNameStore, and server list.

      If you do not want to store passwords or user ids, those parameters can be null. SaveMode is autoconfigured from passed in store parameters.

      Setting the server list to null will unset all of the servers. The server list is guaranteed to be non-null.

      Parameters:
      service - the LoginService to use for logging in
      passwordStore - the PasswordStore to use for storing password information
      userStore - the UserNameStore to use for storing user information
      servers - a list of servers to authenticate against
