Class ShaPasswordEncoder

java.lang.Object
  org.acegisecurity.providers.encoding.BasePasswordEncoder
      org.acegisecurity.providers.encoding.BaseDigestPasswordEncoder
          org.acegisecurity.providers.encoding.MessageDigestPasswordEncoder
              org.acegisecurity.providers.encoding.ShaPasswordEncoder

All Implemented Interfaces:

PasswordEncoder

public class ShaPasswordEncoder
extends MessageDigestPasswordEncoder

SHA implementation of PasswordEncoder.

If a null password is presented, it will be treated as an empty String ("") password.

As SHA is a one-way hash, the salt can contain any characters.

The default strength for the SHA encoding is SHA-1. If you wish to use higher strengths use the argumented constructor. ShaPasswordEncoder(int strength)
The applicationContext example...
<bean id="passwordEncoder" class="org.acegisecurity.providers.encoding.ShaPasswordEncoder">
<constructor-arg value="256"/>
</bean>
