      org.systinet.security.perm.WASPPermissions

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public final class WASPPermissions

extends java.security.PermissionCollection

This class represents a heterogeneous collection designed for WASP permissions. It is very simlilar to standard java.security.Permissions (Java 1.3).That is, it contains different types of Permission objects, organized into PermissionCollections. The main difference relieas in the fact that not only AllPermission, but also AllWSManagePermission has special behaviour. AllPermission implies any extension of java Permission, AllWSManagePermission implies any extension of WSManagePermission.
