flex.messaging.security
Class LoginManager

java.lang.Object
  flex.messaging.security.LoginManager

All Implemented Interfaces:

FlexComponent, FlexConfigurable

public class LoginManager
extends Object
implements FlexComponent

Much of this logic has been taken from the Flash Remoting Gateway.

Since each application server manages sessions, users and security differently, a separate LoginCommand needs to be written for each server.
