Hi!

I have a question about the purpose of multiple signed JAR-files in JDK
1.2: What does it mean exactly that a JAR-file is signed by two (or
more) principals in regards to permissions (as specified in the policy
conf. file), i.e. what permissions will granted to a multiple signed
JAR-file? The intersection or union of code sources/signers, or what?

Where can I read more about the implications of multiple signed
JAR-files?

Thanks!
