Annotation Interface UserHandler
The
UserHandler annotation is used to mark a class or method
as a handler for user-related operations within the security context.
It is intended to identify specific components responsible for managing
user entities (such as user repositories or services) in a security-focused
application.
When applied to a class, this annotation indicates that the associated class is responsible for handling user data, including actions like fetching user information, authenticating users, or managing user-related security operations.
This annotation is used by the SecurityUtil class to dynamically
locate and instantiate the appropriate user handler for operations related
to user authentication.
The annotation can be applied to either a class (e.g., a user repository or service), enabling flexible design patterns such as dependency injection and component discovery in the context of security.
