Spring Security - Third Edition

AnonymousAuthenticationFilter

The AnonymousAuthenticationFilter class had the default constructor and the setKey and setPrincipal methods removed in favor of the constructor injection. For example, take a look at the following code snippet:

    AnonymousAuthenticationFilter filter = new     AnonymousAuthenticationFilter();    filter.setKey(key);    filter.setUserAttribute(attrs);

This should be replaced with the following code:

    AnonymousAuthenticationFilter filter = new       AnonymousAuthenticationFilter(key,attrs.getPassword(),    attrs.getAuthorities());
