Overview

Applications need to have a way to manage Actors.

  • Actors can be people or organizations that are exposed to the end-user of the application.
  • Actors could also be external systems such as mail servers, payment gateways, EDI networks or anything for which the application developer needs to maintain a profile/configuration at run-time.

Actor Management provides the core of the Party component and removes the current problem wherein the framework depends on the Party Component.

It is also required to implement the Security Framework.

Features:

  • Profile management
    • CRUD of Actors and Profiles
    • Actors can have a profile
    • Allows Objects to be associated with a profile - any org.apache.ofbiz.foundation.lang object including images and other files.

  • Role management
    • CRUD for roles

 

Design Goals

 

  • Single configuration file - located anywhere on the class path.
  • Thread-safe.

Basic Architecture

  • Library: OFBiz
  • Java package name: org.apache.ofbiz.foundation.actorManagement
  • No labels
