public class PrincipalBearingCredential
extends org.apereo.cas.authentication.credential.AbstractCredential

Credential that bear the fully resolved and authenticated Principal, or an indication that there is no such Principal. These Credential are a mechanism to pass into CAS information about an authentication and Principal resolution that has already happened in layers in front of CAS, e.g. by means of a Java Servlet Filter or by means of container authentication in the servlet container or Apache layers. DO NOT accept these Credential from arbitrary web-service calls to CAS. Rather, the code constructing these Credential must be trusted to perform appropriate authentication before issuing these credentials.
