Interface SecurityDelegate

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    SecurityDelegateImpl
    public interface SecurityDelegate
    SecurityDelegate, in real usage, relies on having a "parent" JNLPClassLoader instance. However, JNLPClassLoaders are very large, heavyweight, difficult-to-mock objects, which means that unit testing on anything that uses a SecurityDelegate can become very difficult. For example, JarCertVerifier is designed separated from the ClassLoader so it can be tested in isolation. However, JCV needs some sort of access back to JNLPClassLoader instances to be able to invoke setRunInSandbox(). The SecurityDelegate handles this, allowing JCV to be tested without instantiating JNLPClassLoaders, by creating a fake SecurityDelegate that does not require one.
