public class BinderyIdentityScope

extends XplatIdentityScope

Represents an authenticatable container in a Bindery system, such as a server. Every BinderyIdentity is associated with a server identity scope which, in turn, is associated with the Bindery administrative domain scope. The server domain scope is a child of the administrative domain scope and a user identity is a child of the server domain scope.

For example, to construct a user named Karah on a bindery server called Jaeger you could do the following:

 IdentityScope administrativeDomain  = new BinderyIdentityScope();
 IdentityScope server                = new BinderyIdentityScope("Jaeger",administrativeDomain);
 Identity      user                  = new BinderyIdentity("Karah",server);
