Class GetPropertyAction

java.lang.Object
  extended by com.sun.jini.action.GetPropertyAction
All Implemented Interfaces:
PrivilegedAction

public class GetPropertyAction
extends Object
implements PrivilegedAction

A convenience class for retrieving the string value of a system property as a privileged action.

An instance of this class can be used as the argument of AccessController.doPrivileged or Security.doPrivileged.

The following code retrieves the value of the system property named "prop" as a privileged action:

 String s = (String) String.doPrivileged(
                 new GetPropertyAction("prop"));
 

If the protection domain of the immediate caller of doPrivileged or the protection domain of this class does not imply the permissions necessary for the operation, the behavior is as if the system property is not defined.
