Daniel John Debrunner commented on DERBY-892:
---------------------------------------------
My concern with multiple complete files is keeping them all up to date, too
easy for only one file to be modified.
There are several examples in the derbyTests.policy file where a policy is
granted for a single test, e.g..
// sane=true, jdbcapi/secureUsers1.sql
permission java.io.FilePermission "${user.dir}${/}CloudLDAP.out", "write";
// unit tests (e.g. store/T_RecoverFullLog) set this property
// (called from derbyTesting.jar through code in derby.jar)
permission java.util.PropertyPermission "derbyTesting.unittest.*", "write";
I think, though I haven't tried it, that adding permissions into a policy file
is as simple as adding two files together.
If the system allows multiple grant blocks to a single codebase then additional
files would look like this and could
be just appended by the harness to the base policy file.
grant codeBase "${derbyTesting.codejar}derby.jar" {
// sane=true, jdbcapi/secureUsers1.sql
permission java.io.FilePermission "${user.dir}${/}CloudLDAP.out", "write";
}
> add mechanism for specifying policy file for individual function tests

> Key: DERBY-892
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-892
> Project: Derby
> Type: Bug
> Versions: 10.2.0.0
> Reporter: Myrna van Lunteren
> Priority: Minor
>
> It would be nice to be able to specify a test-specific policy file.
> This should get handled similar to existing properties, i.e. get specified in
> a test_app.properties file (or, for a suite, in the suite.properties file).
> The file should then be copied into the correct place.
> Note, that the 'old' functionTests harness (as opposed to junit tests)
> includes a check for a property called 'serverPolicyFile' (in
> harness/jvm.java). The name is a left over from when the policy file was only
> used for/by network server, and should be renamed - derbyTestPolicyFile, for
> instance. It is not used anywhere at present, and not specific to network
> server. It would be nice if this could be expanded, or, if not used, removed.
> The default policy file used is the derby_tests.policy file under
> functionTests/util.
> Also, currently, the property can only be used with RunTest - for further
> traction, it should probably get passed on through RunSuite/RunList.
> Once confirmed to be working, the property should get documented in
> <trunk>/java/testing/README.htm.
