Hi List,

I'm trying to understand how and if the (Java)-SecurityManager is integrated in
the whole Android permissions-concept. I'm asking because it occured to
me, that the NetPermission might be suitable to enforce the access to
Network for specific applications (such as the INTERNET permission).
Also I have seen that the Android-Team made some changes to the
Apache Harmony SecurityManager-Code in Android.

To detail my question:
* Are they any active "java.policy" files during the life time of a dalvik
instance? If yes
  * Are they generated from the permissions in the AndroidManifest.xml?
* Is thery any good starting point for me to get a better understanding
of the permission enforcement? 

Thanks in advance for any replies :-)
Chris
