AttributesContext (OpenAM Server Only 7.2.2 Documentation)

- org.forgerock.services.context.AbstractContext
- - org.forgerock.services.context.AttributesContext

All Implemented Interfaces:

Context
```
public final class AttributesContext
extends AbstractContext
```
An AttributesContext is a mechanism for transferring transient state between components when processing a single request. For example, a filter may store information about the end-user in the AttributeContext which can then be accessed in subsequent filters and handlers in order to perform access control decisions, routing decisions, etc.
The AttributesContext has the same life-cycle as the request with which it is associated. Specifically, any attributes stored when processing one request will not be accessible when processing a subsequent request, even if it is from the same logical client.
Use a SessionContext for maintaining state between successive requests from the same logical client.
