Spring Security requires a Java 17 or higher Runtime Environment.
|
|
|
|
As Spring Security aims to operate in a self-contained manner, you do not need to place any special configuration files in your Java Runtime Environment.
|
|
In particular, you do not need to configure a special Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) policy file or place Spring Security in common classpath locations.
|
|
|
|
Similarly, if you use an EJB Container or Servlet Container, you do not need to put any special configuration files anywhere nor include Spring Security in a server classloader.
|
|
All the required files are contained within your application.
|
|
|
|
This design offers maximum deployment time flexibility, as you can copy your target artifact (be it a JAR, WAR, or EAR) from one system to another and it immediately works.
