[jira] Created: (FELIX-21) Re-implement Java permission security mechanism to use ProtectionDomains

Re-implement Java permission security mechanism to use ProtectionDomains
------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: FELIX-21
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-21
     Project: Felix
        Type: Improvement
  Components: Specification compliance, Framework  
    Reporter: Richard S. Hall


Currently, Felix security has not been ported forward from old code, although much of it remains in place, but it is commented out. There have been some changes with respect to the R4 spec that need to be addressed, but it probably also makes sense to change the previous approach of code sources to protection domains. I believe this approach will improve our ability to deal with assigning default permissions as well as supporting dynamic permissions.
