public void removeGroup(Group group)
                 throws EntityException

Description copied from interface: GroupManager

                   throws EntityException

Description copied from interface: GroupManager

EntityException

removeMembership

public void removeMembership(Group group,
                             User user)

public boolean isCreative()

Used to detemine whether an entity can be added (eg, can call UserManager.createUser(String) orGroupManager.createGroup(String)

Specified by:

isCreative in interface EntityManager

Returns:

true to indicate that Entity objects can be created by this manager, or false to indicate not.

isReadOnly

public boolean isReadOnly(Group group)

Description copied from interface: GroupManager

Returns true if the specified group and membership of the specified group cannot be modified in the repository.

If this returns true, invoking methods which attempt to modify the group or membership of the group will fail with UnsupportedOperationException.

Specified by:

isReadOnly in interface GroupManager

Returns:

true if the group and membership of the group cannot be modified, otherwise false.

supportsExternalMembership

public boolean supportsExternalMembership()
                                   throws EntityException

Description copied from interface: GroupManager

Returns true if the repository supports users in other repositories being members of groups in this repository.

Typically this is true of an application-specific Hibernate repository, but not of a company's LDAP server. It is designed to allow the LDAP users to be members of the application's groups for flexible application-level security.

Specified by:

supportsExternalMembership in interface GroupManager

Returns:

true if users from other repositories can be granted membership to groups in this repository, otherwise false.

Throws:

EntityException
