Custom Realm with WLS 6.1

Question

We are attempting to write a custom security realm for an application we will be deploying on WLS 6.1 so that we can integrate security data scattered across LDAP and database servers.
The documentation describing obtaining configuration for the security store (http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs61/security/prog.html#1041025) has the following snippet of code:
BasicRealmMBean basicRealmMBean =
Server.getSecurityConfig(). getRealm().getCachingRealm.
getBasicRealm();
However, I can not find the Server class they reference. I tried searching in the javadocs for the WLS 6.1 classes, and can't find a class named Server. Perhaps it's an interface, but I can't find the package it belongs to, if that's the case.
Can somebody please point me in the right direction?
Thank you.

Answer 1

Thanks very much, Utpal.
I still can't find the class (or even the package for that matter) at
http://e-docs.beasys.com/wls/docs61/javadocs/index.html
And that sort of mystifies me. Still, your answer solves my current problem.
I still don't fully understand the ConfigurationMBean
stuff as a whole, and how they get bound to a particular realm; i.e. Do I need
to write a MyRealmConfigurationMBean, and if so, how do
I bind it to MyRealm?
Note that the code I originally cited casted a BasicRealm return type to a BasicRealmMBean;
It's not immediately apparent why one is
even castable to the other, since they are two interfaces that
are not on the same inheritance line (I don't think).
Thanks for your time. I appreciate your help.

Check this out
C:\opt\bea\wls61sp2\config\mydomain>javap weblogic.server.Server
Compiled from Server.java
public final class weblogic.server.Server extends java.lang.Object {

It's weblogic.server.Server class.
