Packages that use PermissionContext

org.janux.bus.security

The org.janux.bus.security package, soon to be renamed the org.janux.authorization package, contains interfaces that define a very flexible Permission-Based scheme for doing Authorization within an application; this scheme makes it possible to define whatever permissions suit a specific domain, and aggregate them into existing or new roles without having to make code changes; the key interfaces of this package are PermissionsCapable, Account, Role, and PermissionContext.

PermissionContext	PermissionBit.getPermissionContext() the PermissionContext that contains/uses this PermissionBit
PermissionContext	PermissionContextDao.loadByName(String name) Deprecated. loads an PermissionContext object, or throws exception if PermissionContext with that name is not found
PermissionContext	PermissionContextDaoGeneric.loadByName(String name) loads an PermissionContext object, or throws exception if PermissionContext with that name is not found
PermissionContext	PermissionContextDao.newPermissionContext() Deprecated. returns a new PermissionContext instance
PermissionContext	PermissionContextDaoGeneric.newPermissionContext() returns a new PermissionContext instance

Methods in org.janux.bus.security that return types with arguments of type PermissionContext

Map<String,PermissionContext>	PermissionsCapable.getPermissionContexts() Returns a map of all the PermissionContexts in which this PermissionsCapable Entity has been granted a Permission, whether directly or via a Sub-Role; the map is keyed by the PermissionContext's Name
SortedSet<PermissionContext>	PermissionContextDao.loadAll() Deprecated. Loads all PermissionContexts defined in the system, sorted by sortOrder
SortedSet<PermissionContext>	PermissionContextDaoGeneric.loadAll() Loads all PermissionContexts defined in the system, sorted by sortOrder

Methods in org.janux.bus.security with parameters of type PermissionContext

void	PermissionsCapable.denyPermissions(PermissionContext permissionContext, long permissionsValue) Explicitly denies a set of Permissions within a PermissionContext; this method should be used only to deny permissions that are inherited from Roles associated to this PermissionsCapable entity; this method is not meant to be used as the opposite action to method PermissionsCapable.grantPermissions(PermissionContext, long), although it could be abused that way,
void	PermissionsCapable.grantPermissions(PermissionContext permissionContext, long permissionsValue) In the case of an implementation that uses bitmasks to store permissions, and given a permission context and a long value representing multiple permissions available in that context, this method grants the permissions indicated to this PermissionsCapable Entity.
void	PermissionBit.setPermissionContext(PermissionContext permContext)
