LifeCycle

public class PropertyUserStoreManager extends AbstractLifeCycle
PropertyUserStoreManager Maintains a map of PropertyUserStores, keyed off the location of the property file containing the authentication and authorization information. This class is used to enable the PropertyUserStores to be cached and shared. This is essential for the PropertyFileLoginModules, whose lifecycle is controlled by the JAAS api and instantiated afresh whenever a user needs to be authenticated. Without this class, every PropertyFileLoginModule instantiation would re-read and reload in all the user information just to authenticate a single user.
