Interface SessionManager::Manager

The Manager interface represents an authentication service. It supports explicit session-based authentication for servers that use factory/home interfaces for object creation.

The initial object reference for a server's Manager object may be obtained from the standard CORBA Naming Service using CosNaming::NamingContext::resolve, or may be obtained using CORBA::ORB::string_to_object on a stringified IOR.

Operations

• createSession

  Create an authenticated session. The lifetime of the session is determined by the server based on available resources and security policies.

      SessionManager::Session createSession
      (
          in string user,
          in string password
      );
  

  Note: the session lifetime is not limited to the duration of the connection (e.g. TCP socket) which was used to create the session.

• ping

  Ping the manager.

      void ping
      (
      );
