> Name collision for AccessControlException.
> ------------------------------------------

>                 Key: HDFS-337
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-337
>             Project: Hadoop HDFS
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>            Reporter: Konstantin Shvachko
>
> There is a name collision in org.apache.hadoop.fs.permission.AccessControlException and java.security.AccessControlException.
> Since  java.security.AccessControlException is not an IOException we cannot throw it directly as we do with FileNotFoundException.
> Therefore, the only choice is to rename the hadoop AccessControlException to e.g., PermissionException (or AccessDeniedException).
> To provide compatibility we can inherit PermissionException from AccessControlException, and deprecate the latter.
