PDAttrs: method and constructor summary

Edit online

The PDAttrs class represents a collection of attributes. Attributes are used to encapsulate input and output data sent to and received from authorization and administration service functions. Each attribute consists of entries that have a name and one or more values. The names are Strings, and the values can of type String, byte array, Long, or PDAdmSvcPobj.

Several of the constructors for this class use the context parameter, of class com.tivoli.pd.jutil.PDBasicContext. This class is a superclass of the Security Verify Access contexts. The context to be passed for the authorization APIs is a subclass such as PDContext.

See the Javadoc information in the Security Verify Access Runtime for Java installation package for detailed documentation about this class.
