Apache Shiro 1.2.5 API

Packages 
Package Description
org.apache.shiro
This package primarily exists as a root classpath distinction, but it does contain two core classes widely used by applications, SecurityUtils and ShiroException.

Core interfaces and exceptions concerning Authentication (the act of logging-in).
org.apache.shiro.authc.credential
Support for validating credentials (such as passwords or X509 certificates) during authentication via the CredentialsMatcher interface and its supporting implementations.
org.apache.shiro.authc.pam
Support for PAM, or Pluggable Authentication Modules, which is the capability to authenticate a user against multiple configurable (pluggable) modules (Shiro calls these Realms).
org.apache.shiro.authz
Core interfaces and exceptions supporting Authorization (access control).
org.apache.shiro.authz.annotation
Annotations used to restrict which classes, instances, or methods may be accessed or invoked depending on the caller's access abilities or authentication state.
org.apache.shiro.authz.aop
Contains AOP implementation support classes specifically used for authorization operations, particularly supporting AOP Method Interceptors and JSR-175 metadata Annotations.

org.apache.shiro.realm.jndi
Support for acquiring Realms from JNDI, particularly useful for configuring Shiro in JEE or EJB environments.
org.apache.shiro.realm.ldap
Realms that acquire security data from an LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) server utilizing LDAP/Naming APIs.
org.apache.shiro.realm.text
Realms that acquire security data from text-based data sources such as Files or text streams.
org.apache.shiro.session
Components related to managing sessions, the time-based data contexts in which a Subject interacts with an application.
org.apache.shiro.session.mgt
SessionManager components supporting enterprise session management.
org.apache.shiro.session.mgt.eis
EIS (Enterprise Information System)-tier components that can perform CRUD operations for sessions using any EIS API.
org.apache.shiro.session.mgt.quartz
Quartz-based implementations of components that help SessionManager implementations maintain sessions (timed expiration, orphan cleanup, etc).
org.apache.shiro.spring
Spring Application Framework support for enabling Shiro in spring applications.
org.apache.shiro.spring.aop  
org.apache.shiro.spring.remoting
Support to enable Spring-based remote method invocations to carry a Shiro session ID as part of the invocation payload, allowing remote clients to perform security operations.
org.apache.shiro.spring.security.interceptor
Spring AOP support for enabling Shiro annotations in Spring-configured applications.
org.apache.shiro.spring.web
Spring-specific components for use in Spring-based web applications.
org.apache.shiro.subject
Components supporting the Subject interface, the most important concept in Shiro's API.
org.apache.shiro.subject.support
Concrete support implementations of most of the org.apache.shiro.subject interfaces.
org.apache.shiro.tools.hasher  
org.apache.shiro.util
Your run-of-the-mill 'util' pacakge for components and logic widely used across the framework that can't find their home into a proper OO hierarchy (or, most likely for things used across many hierarchies).
org.apache.shiro.web
Shiro's web support module to support security in any web-enabled application.
org.apache.shiro.web.config
Web-specific implementation extensions to the org.apache.shiro.config components.
