Interface NameRewriter

All Known Implementing Classes:

MutableNameRewriter, RegexNameRewriter, RegexNameValidatingRewriter

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

@FunctionalInterface
public interface NameRewriter

A name rewriter. Name rewriters transform names from one form to another for various purposes, including (but not limited to):

• Normalizing case
• Trimming extra whitespace
• Mapping one naming scheme to another (e.g. "user@realm" to/from "realm/user" or similar)
• Removing a realm component (e.g. "user@realm" to "user")

A name rewriter may also be used to perform a validation step on the syntax of the name. If the rewriter returns null, the name is not valid according to the rules of the rewriter.
