Hello All,
I'm still learning about Shiro and I'm working on permission changes at
runtime. From what I've read, I need to invalidate the cached
AuthorizationInfo so that a user will immediately get their new
permissions. So here is my question:
If my code that manages permission changes to call
clearCachedAuthorizationInfo(PrincipalCollection) on any realm that may
have it cached, why is this method protected? Shouldn't it be public?
As it is, I created a new public method in my custom realm just to call
the protected method.
Is that a mistake? (Generally circumventing protected/private is bad.)
What is the preferred way?
Thanks for your help.
Sincerely,
Stephen McCants
