    public class CredentialExpiredException

extends CredentialException

Signals that a `Credential` has expired.

This exception is thrown by LoginModules when they determine that a `Credential` has expired. For example, a `LoginModule` authenticating a user in its `login` method may determine that the user's password, although entered correctly, has expired. In this case the `LoginModule` throws this exception to notify the application. The application can then take the appropriate steps to assist the user in updating the password.
