• Method Detail

  • engineImplies

    protected abstract boolean engineImplies(ProtectionDomain domain,
     Permission permission)

    Check whether the policy has granted a Permission to a ProtectionDomain.

    Parameters:

    domain - the ProtectionDomain to check.

    permission - check whether this permission is granted to the specified domain.

    Returns:

    boolean true if the permission is granted to the domain.

  • engineRefresh

    protected void engineRefresh()

    Refreshes/reloads the policy configuration. The behavior of this method depends on the implementation. For example, calling refresh on a file-based policy will cause the file to be re-read.

    The default implementation of this method does nothing. This method should be overridden if a refresh operation is supported by the policy implementation.

  • engineGetPermissions

    protected PermissionCollection engineGetPermissions(CodeSource codesource)

    Return a PermissionCollection object containing the set of permissions granted to the specified CodeSource.

    The default implementation of this method returns Policy.UNSUPPORTED_EMPTY_COLLECTION object. This method can be overridden if the policy implementation can return a set of permissions granted to a CodeSource.

    Parameters:

    codesource - the CodeSource to which the returned PermissionCollection has been granted.

    Returns:

    a set of permissions granted to the specified CodeSource. If this operation is supported, the returned set of permissions must be a new mutable instance and it must support heterogeneous Permission types. If this operation is not supported, Policy.UNSUPPORTED_EMPTY_COLLECTION is returned.

  • engineGetPermissions

    protected PermissionCollection engineGetPermissions(ProtectionDomain domain)

    Return a PermissionCollection object containing the set of permissions granted to the specified ProtectionDomain.

    The default implementation of this method returns Policy.UNSUPPORTED_EMPTY_COLLECTION object. This method can be overridden if the policy implementation can return a set of permissions granted to a ProtectionDomain.

    Parameters:

    domain - the ProtectionDomain to which the returned PermissionCollection has been granted.

    Returns:

    a set of permissions granted to the specified ProtectionDomain. If this operation is supported, the returned set of permissions must be a new mutable instance and it must support heterogeneous Permission types. If this operation is not supported, Policy.UNSUPPORTED_EMPTY_COLLECTION is returned.
