Using a class is an alternative for using a pipeline. You can define this class in the handler configuration as an attribute "authenticator" of the "authentication" element, e.g. <authentication authenticator="mypkg.myclass"/> This class must conform to the Authenticator interface and provides a method that tries to authenticate a User and delivers XML that is stored in the session on success. So, the behaviour is similar to the pipeline.
