(

Permission

perm

)

throws AccessControlException

All ProtectionDomains must grant the permission for it to be granted.

Parameters:

perm

java.security.Permission the permission to check

Exceptions:

java.security.AccessControlException

thrown when perm is not granted.

boolean java.security.AccessControlContext.equals

(

Object

o

)

Compares the argument to the receiver, and answers true if they represent the same object using a class specific comparison.

In this case, they must both be AccessControlContexts and contain the same protection domains.

Parameters:

o

the object to compare with this object

Returns:

true if the object is the same as this object false if it is different from this object

See also:

hashCode

int java.security.AccessControlContext.hashCode

(

)

Answers an integer hash code for the receiver.

Any two objects which answer true when passed to equals must answer the same value for this method.

Returns:

the receiver's hash

equals

DomainCombiner java.security.AccessControlContext.getDomainCombiner

(

)

Answers the DomainCombiner for the receiver.
