Class HttpsProtocolPermission

java.lang.Object

java.security.Permission

javax.microedition.io.GCFPermission

javax.microedition.io.HttpsProtocolPermission

public final class HttpsProtocolPermission
extends GCFPermission

This class represents access rights to connections via the "https" protocol. A HttpsProtocolPermission consists of a URI string but no actions list.

The URI string specifies a data resource accessible via secure http. It takes the following form:

 https://{host}[:{portrange}][{pathname}]
 

If the {host} string is a DNS name, an asterisk may appear in the leftmost position to indicate a wildcard match (e.g., "*.sun.com").

The {portrange} string takes the following form:

 portnumber | -portnumber | portnumber-[portnumber]
 

A {portrange} specification of the form "N-" (where N is a port number) signifies all ports numbered N and above, while a specification of the form "-N" indicates all ports numbered N and below.

Constructor Detail

HttpsProtocolPermission

public HttpsProtocolPermission(String uri)

Creates a new HttpsProtocolPermission with the specified URI as its name. The URI string must conform to the specification given above.

Parameters:

uri - the URI string.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if uri is malformed.

NullPointerException - if uri is null.

Permission.getName()

Method Detail

implies

public boolean implies(Permission p)

Checks if this HttpsProtocolPermission object "implies" the specified permission.

More specifically, this method first ensures that all of the following are true (and returns false if any of them are not):

• p is an instanceof HttpsProtocolPermission, and

• p's port range is included in this port range.

Then implies checks each of the following, in order, and for each returns true if the stated condition is true:

• If this object was initialized with a single IP address and one of p's IP addresses is equal to this object's IP address.

• If this object is a wildcard domain (such as *.sun.com), and p's canonical name (the name without any preceding *) ends with this object's canonical host name. For example, *.sun.com implies *.eng.sun.com..

• If this object was not initialized with a single IP address, and one of this object's IP addresses equals one of p's IP addresses.

• If this canonical name equals p's canonical name.

If none of the above are true, implies returns false.

Note that the {pathname} component is not used when evaluating the 'implies' relation.

Specified by:

implies in class Permission

Parameters:

p - the permission to check against.

Returns:

true if the specified permission is implied by this object, false if not.

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Checks two HttpsProtocolPermission objects for equality.

Specified by:

equals in class Permission

Parameters:

obj - the object we are testing for equality with this object.

Returns:

true if obj is a HttpsProtocolPermission and has the same URI string as this HttpsProtocolPermission object.

See Also:

Boolean.hashCode(), Hashtable

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns the hash code value for this object.

Specified by:

hashCode in class Permission

Returns:

a hash code value for this object.

See Also:

Object.equals(java.lang.Object), Hashtable

getActions

public String getActions()

Returns the canonical string representation of the actions, which currently is the empty string "", since there are no actions defined for HttpsProtocolPermission.

Specified by:

getActions in class Permission

Returns:

the empty string "".

newPermissionCollection

public PermissionCollection newPermissionCollection()

Returns a new PermissionCollection for storing HttpsProtocolPermission objects.

HttpsProtocolPermission objects must be stored in a manner that allows them to be inserted into the collection in any order, but that also enables the PermissionCollection implies method to be implemented in an efficient (and consistent) manner.

Overrides:

newPermissionCollection in class Permission

Returns:

a new PermissionCollection suitable for storing HttpsProtocolPermission objects.
