Interface ThreeLeggedFlow

All Known Implementing Classes:

OAuthHmacThreeLeggedFlow

@Beta
public interface ThreeLeggedFlow

Beta
Interface for auth flows that require a user authorization step through a web browser to obtain an authorization code.

Implementations are required to be PersistenceCapable for storage in JDO compliant datastores during user authorization step.

Warning: starting with version 1.7, usage of this for OAuth 2.0 is deprecated. Instead use AuthorizationCodeFlow.

Since:

1.4
