In OES 11g, the applications can be binded to SM instances either through OES Admin console or through API. In this post I would like to provide sample code snippet to do the same.<\/p>\n

Assuming that there is a proper jps-config.xml of an SM instance, the code snippet will work if the JPS Context is defined for “default”.<\/p>\n

\/\/ @ To retrieve the Context Factory Instance.<\/em>
\nJpsContextFactory ctxFact = JpsContextFactory.getContextFactory();<\/em><\/p>\n

\/\/ @ To retrieve the JPS context from jps-config.xml.<\/em>
\nJpsContext ctx = ctxFact.getContext(\u201cdefault\u201d);<\/em><\/p>\n

\/\/ @ To identify Policy Store Instance.<\/em>
\nPolicyStore ps = ctx.getServiceInstance(PolicyStore.class);<\/em><\/p>\n

\/\/ @ To get the instance of ConfigurationBindingManager.<\/em>
\nConfigurationBindingManager configBindingMgr = ps.getConfigurationBindingManager();<\/em><\/p>\n

\/\/Bind the Application to a specific SM instance<\/em>
\nconfigBindingMgr.bindSecurityModule(“smName”, “appName”);<\/em><\/p>\n

\/\/ To unbind the Application from specific SM instance<\/em>
\nconfigBindingMgr.unbindSM(“smName”, “appName”);<\/em><\/p>\n

The above code snippet will just bind\/SM instance to an application. However in order to use the application for fine grained authorization, policies needs to be distributed from OES Server to the SM instance. To achieve this using OES API, use the below code snippet.<\/p>\n

\/\/get the application policy <\/em>
\nApplicationPolicy application = ps.getApplicationPolicy(appName); <\/em><\/p>\n

\/\/get the PolicyDistributionManager <\/em>
\nPolicyDistributionManager pdm = application.getPolicyDistributionManager(); <\/em><\/p>\n

\/\/distribute policies <\/em>
\nString distID = pdm.distributePolicy(true); <\/em><\/p>\n

\/\/ Retrieve the distribute status value\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<\/em>
\nDistributionStatusEntry status = pdm.getDistributionStatus(distID);<\/em><\/p>\n

\/\/ Wait until status is 100%<\/em>
\nwhile (status.getPercentComplete() != 100) {<\/em>
\n\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Thread.currentThread().sleep(200);<\/em>
\n\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0status = pdm.getDistributionStatus(distID);<\/em>
\n}<\/em><\/p>\n

Hope this helps.<\/p>\n
