The image O_1078.gif shows the sequence of events between a client, OC4J, and an Enterprise Information System during component-managed sign-on, as follows: The client issues a request with incoming security context. The request enters the OC4J instance by way of the Application Component. The Application Component gets a connection from the Resource Adapter without explicit outgoing security context determined by the component. The Resource Adapter logs onto the EIS with outgoing security context. The connection is returned to the Application Component which uses it to interact with the EIS under explicit outgoing security context.
