Auth_Container_Multiple

Auth_Container_Multiple -- Authenticate against multiple Auth_Containers

Multiple

This container provides a facility to attempt to authenticate against multiple Auth_Containers in order.

If a container's getAuthData() returns true Auth_Container_Multiple will return true.

When a container's getAuthData() returns false Auth_Container_Multiple will continue on through the list of available containers until a successful login is found or the list of containers is expired.

On receipt of an error from getAuthData() Auth_Container_Multiple will abort checking further containers and return the error.

The storage-specific argument for the Auth constructor() is an array of container configurations. Each container configuration has the following options:

Table 34-1. Available Options

OptionData TypeDefault valueDescription
"type" string "" The type of container to instanciate. This is the same value as used in the first parameter of the Auth constructor() .
"options" array array() This is the standard array of options required for the container.
