Thanks for the additional feedback. >>The meta data name is a global namespace to all applications, so you must qualify it…<< That’s how I understood it. “myComponentNamespace” is a shortened camel case to represent a full application namespace. I renamed all my code to anonymize our client and make my point easier to follow. For example, my provider authority of “myComponentNamespace.theirApplicaitonNamespace” is something like “com.myclientscompany.example.projectname.platform.component.com.thirdpartycompany.applicationname”.
Thanks for pointing at the actual documentation, as it was sort of buried. >>Usually they rely on the standard permission mechanism, though you can do >>more complicated stuff if you want.<< The standard permission mechanism is great for protecting the user from bad applications, but not helpful for protecting an application from a bad user. I will have to look at this in more detail when I find myself implementing something that needs to be secure.
