Method from javax.security.sasl.AuthorizeCallback Detail:
public String getAuthenticationID() { return authenticationID; } Returns the authentication id to check.
public String getAuthorizationID() { return authorizationID; } Returns the authorization id to check.
public String getAuthorizedID() { if (!authorized) { return null; } return (authorizedID == null) ? authorizationID : authorizedID; } Returns the id of the authorized user.
public boolean isAuthorized() { return authorized; } Determines whether the authentication id is allowed to act on behalf of the authorization id.
public void setAuthorized(boolean ok) { authorized = ok; } Sets whether the authorization is allowed.
