java.lang.Objectjava.security.Permission
java.security.BasicPermission
javax.security.auth.AuthPermission
This class is for authentication permissions. An AuthPermission contains a name (also referred to as a "target name") but no actions list; you either have the named permission or you don't.
The target name is the name of a security configuration parameter (see below). Currently the AuthPermission object is used to guard access to the Policy, Subject, LoginContext, and Configuration objects.
The possible target names for an Authentication Permission are:
doAs - allow the caller to invoke theSubject.doAsmethods. doAsPrivileged - allow the caller to invoke theSubject.doAsPrivilegedmethods. getSubject - allow for the retrieval of the Subject(s) associated with the current Thread. getSubjectFromDomainCombiner - allow for the retrieval of the Subject associated with the aSubjectDomainCombiner. setReadOnly - allow the caller to set a Subject to be read-only. modifyPrincipals - allow the caller to modify theSetof Principals associated with aSubjectmodifyPublicCredentials - allow the caller to modify theSetof public credentials associated with aSubjectmodifyPrivateCredentials - allow the caller to modify theSetof private credentials associated with aSubjectrefreshCredential - allow code to invoke therefreshmethod on a credential which implements theRefreshableinterface. destroyCredential - allow code to invoke thedestroymethod on a credentialobjectwhich implements theDestroyableinterface. createLoginContext.{name} - allow code to instantiate aLoginContextwith the specified name. name is used as the index into the loginConfiguration. name can be wildcarded (set to '*') to allow for any name. getLoginConfiguration - allow for the retrieval of the system-wide login Configuration. setLoginConfiguration - allow for the setting of the system-wide login Configuration. refreshLoginConfiguration - allow for the refreshing of the system-wide login Configuration.
The following target name has been deprecated in favor of
createLoginContext.{name}.
createLoginContext - allow code to instantiate a
LoginContext.
javax.security.auth.Policy has been
deprecated in favor of java.security.Policy.
Therefore, the following target names have also been deprecated:
getPolicy - allow the caller to retrieve the system-wide Subject-based access control policy. setPolicy - allow the caller to set the system-wide Subject-based access control policy. refreshPolicy - allow the caller to refresh the system-wide Subject-based access control policy.
