Class OpenMetadataSecurityConnector

All Implemented Interfaces:
AuditLoggingComponent, SecureConnectorExtension, VirtualConnectorExtension
Direct Known Subclasses:
OpenMetadataAccessSecurityConnector, OpenMetadataPlatformSecurityConnector, OpenMetadataServerSecurityConnector

public class OpenMetadataSecurityConnector extends ConnectorBase implements AuditLoggingComponent
OpenMetadataServerSecurityConnector provides the base class for an Open Metadata Security Connector for both the platform and a server. This connector is configured in an OMAG Configuration Document. Its default behavior is to reject every request. It generates well-defined exceptions and audit log messages. Override these to define the required access for the deployment environment. The methods in this base class can be called if access is to be denied as a way of making use of the message logging and exceptions.
