Spring Security - Third Edition

The BasicLookupStrategy class

The JdbcMutableAclService class uses the same JDBC dataSource instance that we've defined with the embedded database declaration, and it also delegates to an implementation of o.s.s.acls.jdbc.LookupStrategy, which is solely responsible for actually making database queries and resolving requests for ACLs. The only LookupStrategy implementation supplied with Spring Security is o.s.s.acls.jdbc.BasicLookupStrategy, and is defined as follows:

src/main/java/com/packtpub/springsecurity/configuration/AclConfig.java@Beanpublic LookupStrategy lookupStrategy(){   return new BasicLookupStrategy(           dataSource,           aclCache(),           aclAuthorizationStrategy(),           consoleAuditLogger());}
