## Package org.eclipse.jetty.policy

Class Summary
JettyPolicy | Policy implementation that will load a set of policy files and manage the mapping of permissions and protection domains The reason I created this class and added this mechanism are: 1) I wanted a way to be able to follow the startup mechanic that jetty uses with jetty-start using OPTIONS=policy,default to be able to startup a security manager and policy implementation without have to rely on the existing JVM cli options 2) establish a starting point to add on further functionality to permissions based security with jetty like jmx enabled permission tweaking or runtime creation and specification of policies for specific webapps 3) I wanted to have support for specifying multiple policy files to source permissions from Possible additions are: - directories of policy file support - jmx enabled a la #2 above - proxying of system security policy where we can proxy access to the system policy should the jvm have been started with one, I had support for this but ripped it out to add in again later - merging of protection domains if process multiple policy files that declare permissions for the same codebase - an xml policy file parser, had originally added this using modello but tore it out since it would have been a nightmare to get its dependencies through IP validation, could do this with jvm xml parser instead sometime - check performance of the synch'd map I am using for the protection domain mapping
