Apache Shiro :: Core 1.2.0 API

Packages
org.apache.shiro This package primarily exists as a root classpath distinction, but it does contain two core classes widely used by applications, SecurityUtils and ShiroException.
org.apache.shiro.aop Components used to support the framework's AOP/interception support classes.
org.apache.shiro.authc Core interfaces and exceptions concerning Authentication (the act of logging-in).
org.apache.shiro.authc.credential Support for validating credentials (such as passwords or X509 certificates) during authentication via the CredentialsMatcher interface and its supporting implementations.
org.apache.shiro.authc.pam Support for PAM, or Pluggable Authentication Modules, which is the capability to authenticate a user against multiple configurable (pluggable) modules (Shiro calls these Realms).
org.apache.shiro.authz Core interfaces and exceptions supporting Authorization (access control).
org.apache.shiro.authz.annotation Annotations used to restrict which classes, instances, or methods may be accessed or invoked depending on the caller's access abilities or authentication state.
org.apache.shiro.authz.aop Contains AOP implementation support classes specifically used for authorization operations, particularly supporting AOP Method Interceptors and JSR-175 metadata Annotations.
org.apache.shiro.authz.permission Support and default implementations for Shiro's Permission interface.
org.apache.shiro.cache Caching support used to enhance performance for any security operation.
org.apache.shiro.codec Components for encoding and decoding of data across multiple formats, especially useful in Shiro's cryptography and web functionality.
org.apache.shiro.concurrent Executor, ExecutorService, and ScheduledExecutorService implementations for transparent Subject association with threads in an asynchronous execution environment.
org.apache.shiro.config Components that support configuring Shiro in any application.
org.apache.shiro.crypto Cryptography Cipher and Hashing components that greatly simplify the JDK's cryptography concepts and add additional convenient behavior.
org.apache.shiro.crypto.hash Cryptographic Hashing components that greatly simplify one-way data hashing in an application.
org.apache.shiro.crypto.hash.format  
org.apache.shiro.dao Package containing various components useful when building Data Access Objects (DAOs), including a generic Data Access Exception hierarchy.
org.apache.shiro.env Concepts used to represent Shiro's aggregate state in an application.
org.apache.shiro.functor Package containing functor components used for data translation or conversion.
org.apache.shiro.io Support for reading and writing (input/output) raw data from multiple resource locations.
org.apache.shiro.jndi Enables accessing objects located in JNDI that might be useful when configuring a Shiro-enabled application.
org.apache.shiro.ldap  
org.apache.shiro.mgt Provides the master SecurityManager interface and a default implementation hierarchy for managing all aspects of Shiro's functionality in an application.
org.apache.shiro.realm Components and sub-packages used in supporting the core Realm interface.
org.apache.shiro.realm.activedirectory Realms that acquire security data from a Microsoft Active Directory.
org.apache.shiro.realm.jdbc Realms that acquire security data from an RDBMS (Relational Database Management System) using the JDBC API.
org.apache.shiro.realm.jndi Support for acquiring Realms from JNDI, particularly useful for configuring Shiro in JEE or EJB environments.
org.apache.shiro.realm.ldap Realms that acquire security data from an LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) server utilizing LDAP/Naming APIs.
org.apache.shiro.realm.text Realms that acquire security data from text-based data sources such as Files or text streams.
org.apache.shiro.session Components related to managing sessions, the time-based data contexts in which a Subject interacts with an application.
org.apache.shiro.session.mgt SessionManager components supporting enterprise session management.
org.apache.shiro.session.mgt.eis EIS (Enterprise Information System)-tier components that can perform CRUD operations for sessions using any EIS API.
org.apache.shiro.subject Components supporting the Subject interface, the most important concept in Shiro's API.
org.apache.shiro.subject.support Concrete support implementations of most of the org.apache.shiro.subject interfaces.
org.apache.shiro.util Your run-of-the-mill 'util' pacakge for components and logic widely used across the framework that can't find their home into a proper OO hierarchy (or, most likely for things used across many hierarchies).
