Class MapObject

java.lang.Object

com.caplin.server.auth.MapObject

public class MapObject
extends java.lang.Object

Contains a representation of a mapped RTTP object holding the original object name and its mapped name.

The Liberator provides this powerful mechanism for mapping a user-requested object to another object name at the server back-end. This allows, for example, preferential prices or spreads to be provided to particular users or groups of users whilst maintaining a single object name on the client-side.

An instance of a MapObject is passed to the Authenticator.mapObject method. To perform object mapping simply set the mapped object name and ensure that AuthenticationResult.OK is returned.
