Description: declaration: package: org.apache.catalina.valves, class: ValveBase

# Class ValveBase

java.lang.Object
org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleBase
org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleMBeanBase
org.apache.catalina.valves.ValveBase

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `MBeanRegistration, Contained, JmxEnabled, Lifecycle, Valve`

Direct Known Subclasses:
  `AbstractAccessLogValve, AuthenticatorBase, CrawlerSessionManagerValve, ErrorReportValve, FilterValve, HealthCheckValve, JDBCAccessLogValve, JvmRouteBinderValve, LoadBalancerDrainingValve, ParameterLimitValve, PersistentValve, RemoteIpValve, ReplicationValve, RequestFilterValve, RewriteValve, SemaphoreValve, SingleSignOn, SSLValve, StuckThreadDetectionValve`

public abstract class ValveBase extends LifecycleMBeanBase implements Contained, Valve
Convenience base class for implementations of the Valve interface. A subclass MUST implement an `invoke()` method to provide the required functionality, and MAY implement the `Lifecycle` interface to provide configuration management and lifecycle support.
