    Subject: Possible to dynamically change the permisisons ?

    Date: Fri, 31 Jul 1998 17:48:16 -0700

Hi,

Is there any simple way to change the permissions at run-time (in JDK
1.2 beta 4) ? It looks like the permissions are statically initialized
according to the defined policy. But if an application wants to modify
the permissions at run time does it need to re-initialize *all* the
policy by calling the refresh() method on the policy object ? A simple
example could be a user can access a previously restricted resource if
his/her membership level changes.
