Class SubjectContext

java.lang.Object
org.opensaml.messaging.context.BaseContext
net.shibboleth.idp.authn.context.SubjectContext
All Implemented Interfaces:
Iterable<BaseContext>

public final class SubjectContext extends BaseContext
A context that holds information about the subject of a request.

The subject may or may not be authenticated, such as in a back-channel profile, but profiles that operate on subjects can treat the information as "trusted" for their purposes. This context must not be used to carry speculative or unverified subject information.

This is the ultimate product of a successful authentication process.

A second field is available to store an identity that is impersonating the effective subject identity. Profiles should operate on the effective subject unless they need to be aware of both identities.

ProfileRequestContext
Added:
After the subject of a request is determined
