Interface TokenProvider

public interface TokenProvider

Functional capability for synchronous provisioning of Access Tokens. Clients will need to actively call the #get) method to receive a token and the call will block waiting until the token is delivered. Simplistic implementations will result in network requests to a token service on each call. But a combination with a job that continuously updates tokens asynchronously and get method that returns the last known good immediately may be another option. For asynchronous token providers see {@link TokenProviderJob}
