Hello,
I was wondering if anyone could help me with a few more questions on the ACL
sandbox code.
I was wondering why not have the AccessControlEntry interface deal with
Atomic permissions instead of a Cumulative Permission
- is this due to a performance issue?
I was wondering why not do the following in AccessControlEntry interface:
/**
* Get the atomic
* permissions for this ACE.
*
* @return
*/
public Permission[] getPermissions();
/**
* Returns a single integer mask. It is
* expected to be a sum of the atomic
* permissions in this ACE.
*
* @return
*/
public int getMask();
/**
* Get the pattern for this ACE
*
* @return
*/
public String getPattern()
I was also wondering about the isGranting() method. When would a permission
not be granting? I changed
the interface to the following so I could delegate to the ACE for checking
permissions for a sid:
public boolean isGranting(int mask, Sid sid);
Thanks for all the help.
-Nate
