Class FormAuthenticator

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.eclipse.jetty.security.authentication.LoginAuthenticator
      extended by org.eclipse.jetty.security.authentication.FormAuthenticator
All Implemented Interfaces:
Authenticator

public class FormAuthenticator
extends LoginAuthenticator

FORM Authenticator.

This authenticator implements form authentication will use dispatchers to the login page if the __FORM_DISPATCH init parameter is set to true. Otherwise it will redirect.

The form authenticator redirects unauthenticated requests to a log page which should use a form to gather username/password from the user and send them to the /j_security_check URI within the context. FormAuthentication uses SessionAuthentication to wrap Authentication results so that they are associated with the session.
