Authentication Framework: Module Management

+ +

+
+

In addition to the application management feature, the framework offers a +facility called module management. It enhances the application management by +adding the possibility of configuring components for the application. For +example, the Cocoon portal engine needs information about the source of the +portal profile for the user, about where the layout is stored, etc. Each portal +needs this information. Assuming that a portal is an application each +application needs this information. As only the portal engine itself knows what +information it needs, the module management is a standarized way for configuring +such components.

+

The module configuration is part of the application configuration:

+
<autentication-manager>
+  <handlers>
+    <handler name="unique">
+      ....redirect-to/authentication configuration
+      <applications>  <!-- the applications for this handler -->
+        <application name="unique">
+          ...
+          <configuration name="portal">
+            ...portal configuration
+          </configuration>
+        </application>
+      </applications>
+    </handler>
+  </handlers>
+</autentication-manager>
+

So whenever the portal engine is asked to build the portal it can easily +retrieve its configuration from the current application by getting the module +configuration named "portal".
