Deprecated.
as of JDK version 1.4 -- Replaced by java.security.Policy.
java.security.Policy has a method:
public PermissionCollection getPermissions (java.security.ProtectionDomain pd)and ProtectionDomain has a constructor: public ProtectionDomain (CodeSource cs, PermissionCollection permissions, ClassLoader loader, Principal[] principals)These two APIs provide callers the means to query the Policy for Principal-based Permission entries. |
