/**
|
|
* This class is for runtime permissions. A RuntimePermission
|
|
* contains a name (also referred to as a "target name") but
|
|
* no actions list; you either have the named permission
|
|
* or you don't.
|
|
*
|
|
* <P>
|
|
* The target name is the name of the runtime permission (see below). The
|
|
* naming convention follows the hierarchical property naming convention.
|
|
* Also, an asterisk
|
|
* may appear at the end of the name, following a ".", or by itself, to
|
|
* signify a wildcard match. For example: "loadLibrary.*" and "*" signify a
|
|
* wildcard match, while "*loadLibrary" and "a*b" do not.
|
|
* <P>
|
|
* The following table lists all the possible RuntimePermission target names,
|
|
* and for each provides a description of what the permission allows
|
|
* and a discussion of the risks of granting code the permission.
