Re: [equinox-dev] Problem with custom local permissions

[BJ Hargrave <hargrave@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Have you written (or installed) a bundle
which reads the permissions.perm file, parses the text into PermissionInfos
and calls either PermissionAdmin or ConditionalPermissionAdmin to set the
permissions of the bundle?

permissions.perm files are not read
by the framework. You need s security policy bundle installed (for example,
as I describe above) to set bundle permissions. The framework is policy
free.

Hi,
 
I have the next scenario: 
Bundle Service which has a method called
addVALUE as  shown:
 
public
boolean
addValue(String key, Object value) {
 
         
  SecurityManager security = System.getSecurityManager();
         
if
(security != null)
{
         
  security.checkPermission(new
PlatformConfigurationPermission(
         
          PlatformConfigurationPermission.WRITE_VALUE));
   
         
}
      
}
 
The problem is that other  bundle
 called consumer which has the next permissions.perm file, tries to
call this method getting the Security Exception shown below:
 
#TestPlatformConfiguration Permissions
File
(java.io.FilePermission "C:\TestingLog3.log"
"write")
(es.citic.osgi.system.platformConfiguration.PlatformConfigurationPermission
"PlatformConfigurationPermission" "writeValue")
 
 
The Exception which was got is:
Java.security.AccessControlException:
Access denied (es.citic.osgi.system.platformConfiguration.PlatoformConfigurationPermission
PlatformConfigurationPermission writeValue)
 
 
My PlatformConfigurationPermission
class extends from Permission.
 
What am I missing in this implementation?
 
It looks like as does not recognice what
I am writing in the permission.perm file.
 
Any idea
 
Thank you in advance
