DaemonPermission (Java Daemons (Version 1.0.1))

This class represents the permissions to control and query the status of a Daemon. A DaemonPermission consists of a target name and a list of actions associated with it.

In this specification version the only available target name for this permission is "control", but further releases may add more target names to fine-tune the access that needs to be granted to the caller.

Actions are defined by a string of comma-separated values, as shown in the table below. The empty string implies no permission at all, while the special "*" value implies all permissions for the given name:

Target"Name	Action	Description
"control"	"start"	The permission to call the `start()` method in an instance of a `DaemonController` interface.
	"stop"	The permission to call the `stop()` method in an instance of a `DaemonController` interface.
	"shutdown"	The permission to call the `shutdown()` method in an instance of a `DaemonController` interface.
	"reload"	The permission to call the `reload()` method in an instance of a `DaemonController` interface.
	"*"	The special wildcard action implies all above-mentioned action. This is equal to construct a permission with the "start, stop, shutdown, reload" list of actions.

Version: 1.0 (CVS $Revision: 155409 $)
