Description
This package primarily exists as a root classpath distinction, but it does contain two core classes widely used by applications, SecurityUtils and ShiroException.
Components used to support the framework's AOP/interception support classes.
Core interfaces and exceptions concerning Authentication (the act of logging-in).
Support for PAM, or Pluggable Authentication Modules, which is the capability to authenticate a user against multiple configurable (pluggable) modules (Shiro calls these Realms).
Core interfaces and exceptions supporting Authorization (access control).
Executor, ExecutorService, and ScheduledExecutorService implementations for transparent Subject association with threads in an asynchronous execution environment.
Provides the master SecurityManager interface and a default implementation hierarchy for managing all aspects of Shiro's functionality in an application.
Components and sub-packages used in supporting the core Realm interface.
Realms that acquire security data from a Microsoft Active Directory.
Realms that acquire security data from an RDBMS (Relational Database Management System) using the JDBC API.
Realms that acquire security data from an LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) server utilizing LDAP/Naming APIs.
Components supporting the Subject interface, the most important concept in Shiro's API.
Concrete support implementations of most of the org.apache.shiro.subject interfaces.
Your run-of-the-mill 'util' package for components and logic widely used across the framework that can't find their home into a proper OO hierarchy (or, most likely for things used across many hierarchies).
