AuthenticatingRealm.init

Initializes this realm and potentially enables an authentication cache, depending on configuration. Based on the availability of an authentication cache, this class functions as follows: <ol> <li>If the {@link #setAuthenticationCache cache} property has been set, it will be used to cache the AuthenticationInfo objects returned from {@link #getAuthenticationInfo} method invocations. All future calls to {@link #getAuthenticationInfo} will attempt to use this cache first to alleviate any potentially unnecessary calls to an underlying data store.</li> <li>If the {@link #setAuthenticationCache cache} property has <b>not</b> been set, the {@link #setCacheManager cacheManager} property will be checked. If a {@code cacheManager} has been set, it will be used to eagerly acquire an authentication {@code cache}, and this cache which will be used as specified in #1.</li> <li>If neither the {@link #setAuthenticationCache (hunt.shiro.cache.Cache) authenticationCache} or {@link #setCacheManager(hunt.shiro.cache.CacheManager) cacheManager} properties are set, caching will not be utilized and authentication look-ups will be delegated to subclass implementations for each authentication attempt.</li> </ol> <p/> This method finishes by calling {@link #onInit()} is to allow subclasses to perform any init behavior desired.
