@Deprecated(since="25", forRemoval=true) public final class UnresolvedPermission extends Permission implements Serializable

Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.

This permission cannot be used for controlling access to resources as the Security Manager is no longer supported.

The UnresolvedPermission class used to hold Permissions that were "unresolved" when the Policy was initialized. Installing a system-wide Policy object is no longer supported.

Constructor Details

UnresolvedPermission

public UnresolvedPermission(String type, String name, String actions, Certificate[] certs)

Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.

Creates a new UnresolvedPermission containing the permission information needed later to actually create a Permission of the specified class, when the permission is resolved.

Parameters:: type - the class name of the Permission class that will be created when this unresolved permission is resolved.; name - the name of the permission.; actions - the actions of the permission.; certs - the certificates the permission's class was signed with. This is a list of certificate chains, where each chain is composed of a signer certificate and optionally its supporting certificate chain. Each chain is ordered bottom-to-top (i.e., with the signer certificate first and the (root) certificate authority last). The signer certificates are copied from the array. Subsequent changes to the array will not affect this UnresolvedPermission.

Method Details

implies

public boolean implies(Permission p)

Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.

This method always returns false for unresolved permissions. That is, an UnresolvedPermission is never considered to imply another permission.

Specified by:: implies in class Permission
Parameters:: p - the permission to check against.
Returns:: false.

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.

Checks two UnresolvedPermission objects for equality. Checks that obj is an UnresolvedPermission, and has the same type (class) name, permission name, actions, and certificates as this object.

To determine certificate equality, this method only compares actual signer certificates. Supporting certificate chains are not taken into consideration by this method.

Specified by:

equals in class Permission

Parameters:

obj - the object we are testing for equality with this object.

Returns:

true if obj is an UnresolvedPermission, and has the same type (class) name, permission name, actions, and certificates as this object.

See Also:

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.

Returns the hash code value for this object.

Specified by:

hashCode in class Permission

Returns:

the hash code value for this object

See Also:

getActions

public String getActions()

Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.

Returns the canonical string representation of the actions, which currently is the empty string "", since there are no actions for an UnresolvedPermission. That is, the actions for the permission that will be created when this UnresolvedPermission is resolved may be non-null, but an UnresolvedPermission itself is never considered to have any actions.

Specified by:: getActions in class Permission
Returns:: the empty string "".

getUnresolvedType

public String getUnresolvedType()

Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.

Get the type (class name) of the underlying permission that has not been resolved.

Returns:: the type (class name) of the underlying permission that has not been resolved
Since:: 1.5

getUnresolvedName

public String getUnresolvedName()

Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.

Get the target name of the underlying permission that has not been resolved.

Returns:: the target name of the underlying permission that has not been resolved, or null, if there is no target name
Since:: 1.5

getUnresolvedActions

public String getUnresolvedActions()

Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.

Get the actions for the underlying permission that has not been resolved.

Returns:: the actions for the underlying permission that has not been resolved, or null if there are no actions
Since:: 1.5

getUnresolvedCerts

public Certificate[] getUnresolvedCerts()

Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.

Get the signer certificates (without any supporting chain) for the underlying permission that has not been resolved.

Returns:: the signer certificates for the underlying permission that has not been resolved, or null, if there are no signer certificates. Returns a new array each time this method is called.
Since:: 1.5

toString

public String toString()

Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.

Returns a string describing this UnresolvedPermission. The convention is to specify the class name, the permission name, and the actions, in the following format: '(unresolved "ClassName" "name" "actions")'.

Overrides:: toString in class Permission
Returns:: information about this UnresolvedPermission.

newPermissionCollection

public PermissionCollection newPermissionCollection()

Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.

Returns a new PermissionCollection object for storing UnresolvedPermission objects.

Overrides:: newPermissionCollection in class Permission
Returns:: a new PermissionCollection object suitable for storing UnresolvedPermissions.
