Interface ISecureComponent

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Subinterfaces:

ISecureContainer, ISecurePage

All Known Implementing Classes:

SecureAjaxLink, SecureBookmarkablePageLink, SecureContainerLink, SecureForm, SecurePage, SecurePageLink, SecurePanel, SecureTextField, SecureWebPage

public interface ISecureComponent
extends Serializable

Some methods for secure components to easier get a hold of the securitycheck. Components not implementing this interface can still get or set a securitycheck on them with the SecureComponentHelper. implementations should as default use these methods to wrap the calls to SecureComponentHelper, although classes like IAuthorizationStrategy should not depend on this behavior.
