All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Guard

public final class ActivatorPermission
extends AccessPermission

Represents permissions that can be used to express the access control policy for the activator, the remote object handling object activation, if that remote object is exported with BasicJeriExporter. This class can be passed to BasicInvocationDispatcher, and then used in security policy permission grants.

This permission class can be used for server-side access control of remote object activation initiated by the client-side ActivationID.activate method. The server-side method name for this operation is activate.

An instance contains a name (also referred to as a "target name") but no actions list; you either have the named permission or you don't. The convention is that the target name is the fully qualified name of the remote method being invoked. Wildcard matches are supported using the syntax specified by AccessPermission.

The possible target names for the activator are:

Permission Target Name	What the Permission Allows	Risks of Allowing this Permission
activate	invoking the activator's activate method	The caller can activate an object and obtain the proxy for it if it knows the activation identifier.
net.jini.security.proxytrust.ProxyTrust.getProxyVerifier	invoking ProxyTrust.getProxyVerifier	The caller can verify trust in activation identifiers.
