    public interface MemberVirtualAttributeCfgClient

    • Method Detail

      • isAllowRetrievingMembership

        boolean isAllowRetrievingMembership()
        Gets the "allow-retrieving-membership" property.

        Indicates whether to handle requests that request all values for the virtual attribute.

        This operation can be very expensive in some cases and is not consistent with the primary function of virtual static groups, which is to make it possible to use static group idioms to determine whether a given user is a member. If this attribute is set to false, attempts to retrieve the entire set of values receive an empty set, and only attempts to determine whether the attribute has a specific value or set of values (which is the primary anticipated use for virtual static groups) are handled properly.

        Returns:
        Returns the value of the "allow-retrieving-membership" property.
      • setAllowRetrievingMembership

        void setAllowRetrievingMembership​(boolean value)
                                   throws PropertyException
        Sets the "allow-retrieving-membership" property.

        value - The value of the "allow-retrieving-membership" property.
        Throws:
