    25   * An extension to JSONScreen that performs a Security Check before invoking
    26   * doBuildTemplate().  You should extend this class and add the specific
    27   * security check needed.  If you have a number of screens that need to perform
    28   * the same check, you could make a base screen by extending this class and
    29   * implementing the isAuthorized().  Then each screen that needs to perform the
    30   * same check could extend your base screen.
    31   *
    32   * <p>Typically you would extend this class and override the doOutput() method
    33   * to use TurbineJsonRpc to register the POJOs that will provide the functions
    34   * you are making available via JSON-RPC.  Use JSONScreen if you <p>do not</b>
    35   * need the user to be logged in prior to executing the functions you provide.
    36   *
    37   * <p>Here is an example from a superclass:
    38   * <code>
    39   * public void doOutput(PipelineData data) throws Exception
    40   * {
    41   *     User user = data.getUser();
    42   *
    43   *     MySecureJsonFunctions myFunctions
    44   *             = new MySecureJsonFunctions(user.getName());
    45   *
    46   *     // Session specific
    47   *     TurbineJsonRpc.registerObject(data.getSession(), "myFunctions", myFunctions);
    48   *
    49   *     // Global
    50   *     //TurbineJsonRpc.registerObjectGlobal("testGlobal", testObject);
    51   *
    52   *     super.doOutput(data);
    53   * }
    54   * </code>
    55   *
    56   * <p>The class MyFunctions would be something like:
    57   * <code>
    58   * public class MySecureJsonFunctions
    59   * {
    60   *     private final String name;
    61   *
    62   *     public MySecureJsonFunctions(String name)
    63   *     {
    64   *         this.name = name;
    65   *     }
    66   *
    67   *     private String getName(String clientParameter)
    68   *     {
    69   *         return "Client " + clientParameter + " says Hello World to " + name;
    70   *     }
    71   * }
    72   * </code>
