Interface UserAdmin</H2>
<HR>
<DL>
<DT><PRE>public interface <B>UserAdmin</B></DL>
</PRE>
<P>
This interface is used to manage a database of named <code>Role</code> objects,
which can be used for authentication and authorization purposes.
<p>
This version of the User Admin service defines two types of <code>Role</code>
objects: "User" and "Group". Each type of role is represented by an
<code>int</code> constant and an interface. The range of positive integers is
reserved for new types of roles that may be added in the future. When
defining proprietary role types, negative constant values must be used.
<p>
Every role has a name and a type.
<p>
A <A HREF="../../../../org/osgi/service/useradmin/User.html" title="interface in org.osgi.service.useradmin"><CODE>User</CODE></A> object can be configured with credentials (e.g., a password)
and properties (e.g., a street address, phone number, etc.).
<p>
A <A HREF="../../../../org/osgi/service/useradmin/Group.html" title="interface in org.osgi.service.useradmin"><CODE>Group</CODE></A> object represents an aggregation of <A HREF="../../../../org/osgi/service/useradmin/User.html" title="interface in org.osgi.service.useradmin"><CODE>User</CODE></A> and
<A HREF="../../../../org/osgi/service/useradmin/Group.html" title="interface in org.osgi.service.useradmin"><CODE>Group</CODE></A> objects. In other words, the members of a <code>Group</code>
object are roles themselves.
<p>
Every User Admin service manages and maintains its own namespace of
<code>Role</code> objects, in which each <code>Role</code> object has a unique
name.
