public interface Authenticator
Contains the various tasks defined by the UserClient to be performed
in the AuthenticationView during the authentication process. The methods to be called
during the authentication process are as follows:
connected(User) - When a user has been returned successfully.failed(String) - When the authentication process has failed.aborted(String) - When the process has been aborted by the user.finished() - When the control is to be handed back to the UserClient.finished() should be called at the end of the AuthenticationView.authenticate(Authenticator)
and no more code execution should happen after the call is made because these action could interfere
with the user provided action in finished().
