Interface ExtendedAuthProvider

All Superinterfaces:

AuthProvider

All Known Implementing Classes:

ExtendedAuthProvider.NoAuthProvider, PlainTextAuthProvider

public interface ExtendedAuthProvider
extends AuthProvider

An auth provider that represents the host as an EndPoint instead of a raw InetSocketAddress.

This interface exists solely for backward compatibility: it wasn't possible to change AuthProvider directly, because it would have broken every 3rd-party implementation.

All built-in providers now implement this interface, and it is recommended that new implementations do too.

When the driver calls an auth provider, it will check if it implements this interface. If so, it will call newAuthenticator(EndPoint, String); otherwise it will convert the endpoint into an address with EndPoint.resolve() and call AuthProvider.newAuthenticator(InetSocketAddress, String).
