      • isErrorMessagesAsHeaders

        public boolean isErrorMessagesAsHeaders()
        Indicates whether error messages will be responded as headers.
        Returns:
        indicates whether error messages will be responded as headers
      • setErrorMessagesAsHeaders

        public void setErrorMessagesAsHeaders​(boolean errorMessagesAsHeaders)
        Sets whether error messages will be returned as headers.

        It is not always desired or necessary to produce an error page, e.g., non-interactive clients do not analyze it anyway, but have to consume the response (wasted time and resources). When a client issues a request, the server will write the error messages to either one header: Auth-Error or Server-Error.

        Technically speaking, HttpServletResponse.setStatus(int) will be called instead of HttpServletResponse.sendError(int, String).

        Parameters:
        errorMessagesAsHeaders - indicates whether error messages will be responded as headers

        public void setStoreDelegatedCredential​(boolean storeDelegatedCredential)
