public final class ContextPermission
extends AccessPermission

Represents permissions used to express the access control policy for elements commonly found in the context collections available from ServerContext and ObjectStreamContext.

An instance contains a name (also referred to as a "target name") but no actions list; you either have the named permission or you don't. The convention is that the target name is the fully qualified name of the (interface) method being invoked on the context element. Wildcard matches are supported using the syntax specified by AccessPermission.
