Section 15.3.2 of the EJB 1.1 specification states:

"The method permissions relation is defined as the union of all the
method permissions defined in the individual method-permission
elements."

Does this mean that more specific method permissions DO NOT override
more general method permissions?  (An example scenario is shown at the
bottom of this e-mail)

I need an answer to this question this morning if possible from a Sun
authority on EJB 1.1. I post the question here so that the entire
community can benefit.

Thanks,

Richard

Example:

<method-permission>
      <role-name>Manager</role-name>
      <method>
         <ejb-name>Account</ejb-name>
         <method-name>*</method-name>
      </method>
</method-permission>

<method-permission>
      <role-name>Teller</role-name>
      <method>
         <ejb-name>Account</ejb-name>
         <method-name>transfer</method-name>
      </method>
</method-permission>

Would "union" mean that both the "Teller" and "Manager" role can access
the transfer method?
