/**
 * This class represents a default implementation for
 * <code>javax.security.auth.Policy</code>.
 *
 * <p> This object stores the policy for entire Java runtime,
 * and is the amalgamation of multiple static policy
 * configurations that resides in files.
 * The algorithm for locating the policy file(s) and reading their
 * information into this <code>Policy</code> object is:
 *
 * <ol>
 * <li>
 *   Loop through the security properties,
 *   <i>auth.policy.url.1</i>, <i>auth.policy.url.2</i>, ...,
 *   <i>auth.policy.url.X</i>".
 *   Each property value specifies a <code>URL</code> pointing to a
 *   policy file to be loaded.  Read in and load each policy.
 *
 * <li>
 *   The <code>java.lang.System</code> property <i>java.security.auth.policy</i>
 *   may also be set to a <code>URL</code> pointing to another policy file
 *   (which is the case when a user uses the -D switch at runtime).
 *   If this property is defined, and its use is allowed by the
 *   security property file (the Security property,
 *   <i>policy.allowSystemProperty</i> is set to <i>true</i>),
 *   also load that policy.
 *
 * <li>
 *   If the <i>java.security.auth.policy</i> property is defined using
 *   "==" (rather than "="), then ignore all other specified
 *   policies and only load this policy.
 * </ol>
 *
 * Each policy file consists of one or more grant entries, each of
 * which consists of a number of permission entries.
 *
 * <pre>
 *   grant signedBy "<b>alias</b>", codeBase "<b>URL</b>",
 *         principal <b>principalClass</b> "<b>principalName</b>",
 *         principal <b>principalClass</b> "<b>principalName</b>",
 *         ... {
 *
 *     permission <b>Type</b> "<b>name</b> "<b>action</b>",
 *         signedBy "<b>alias</b>";
 *     permission <b>Type</b> "<b>name</b> "<b>action</b>",
 *         signedBy "<b>alias</b>";
 *     ....
 *   };
 * </pre>
 *
 * All non-bold items above must appear as is (although case
 * doesn't matter and some are optional, as noted below).
 * Italicized items represent variable values.
 *
 * <p> A grant entry must begin with the word <code>grant</code>.
 * The <code>signedBy</code> and <code>codeBase</code>
 * name/value pairs are optional.
 * If they are not present, then any signer (including unsigned code)
 * will match, and any codeBase will match.  Note that the
 * <code>principal</code> name/value pair is not optional.
 * This <code>Policy</code> implementation only permits
 * Principal-based grant entries.  Note that the <i>principalClass</i>
 * may be set to the wildcard value, *, which allows it to match
 * any <code>Principal</code> class.  In addition, the <i>principalName</i>
 * may also be set to the wildcard value, *, allowing it to match
 * any <code>Principal</code> name.  When setting the <i>principalName</i>
 * to the *, do not surround the * with quotes.
 *
 * <p> A permission entry must begin with the word <code>permission</code>.
 * The word <code><i>Type</i></code> in the template above is
 * a specific permission type, such as <code>java.io.FilePermission</code>
 * or <code>java.lang.RuntimePermission</code>.
 *
 * <p> The "<i>action</i>" is required for
 * many permission types, such as <code>java.io.FilePermission</code>
 * (where it specifies what type of file access that is permitted).
 * It is not required for categories such as
 * <code>java.lang.RuntimePermission</code>
 * where it is not necessary - you either have the
 * permission specified by the <code>"<i>name</i>"</code>
 * value following the type name or you don't.
 *
 * <p> The <code>signedBy</code> name/value pair for a permission entry
 * is optional. If present, it indicates a signed permission. That is,
 * the permission class itself must be signed by the given alias in
 * order for it to be granted. For example,
 * suppose you have the following grant entry:
 *
 * <pre>
 *   grant principal foo.com.Principal "Duke" {
 *     permission Foo "foobar", signedBy "FooSoft";
 *   }
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p> Then this permission of type <i>Foo</i> is granted if the
 * <code>Foo.class</code> permission has been signed by the
 * "FooSoft" alias, or if <code>Foo.class</code> is a
 * system class (i.e., is found on the CLASSPATH).
 *
 * <p> Items that appear in an entry must appear in the specified order
 * (<code>permission</code>, <i>Type</i>, "<i>name</i>", and
 * "<i>action</i>"). An entry is terminated with a semicolon.
 *
 * <p> Case is unimportant for the identifiers (<code>permission</code>,
 * <code>signedBy</code>, <code>codeBase</code>, etc.) but is
 * significant for the <i>Type</i>
 * or for any string that is passed in as a value. <p>
 *
 * <p> An example of two entries in a policy configuration file is
 * <pre>
 *   // if the code is comes from "foo.com" and is running as "Duke",
 *   // grant it read/write to all files in /tmp.
 *
 *   grant codeBase "foo.com", principal foo.com.Principal "Duke" {
 *              permission java.io.FilePermission "/tmp/*", "read,write";
 *   };
 *
 *   // grant any code running as "Duke" permission to read
 *   // the "java.vendor" Property.
 *
 *   grant principal foo.com.Principal "Duke" {
 *         permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.vendor";
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p> This <code>Policy</code> implementation supports
 * special handling for PrivateCredentialPermissions.
 * If a grant entry is configured with a
 * <code>PrivateCredentialPermission</code>,
 * and the "Principal Class/Principal Name" for that
 * <code>PrivateCredentialPermission</code> is "self",
 * then the entry grants the specified <code>Subject</code> permission to
 * access its own private Credential.  For example,
 * the following grants the <code>Subject</code> "Duke"
 * access to its own a.b.Credential.
 *
 * <pre>
 *   grant principal foo.com.Principal "Duke" {
 *      permission javax.security.auth.PrivateCredentialPermission
 *              "a.b.Credential self",
 *              "read";
 *    };
 * </pre>
 *
 * The following grants the <code>Subject</code> "Duke"
 * access to all of its own private Credentials:
 *
 * <pre>
 *   grant principal foo.com.Principal "Duke" {
 *      permission javax.security.auth.PrivateCredentialPermission
 *              "* self",
 *              "read";
 *    };
 * </pre>
 *
 * The following grants all Subjects authenticated as a
 * <code>SolarisPrincipal</code> (regardless of their respective names)
 * permission to access their own private Credentials:
 *
 * <pre>
 *   grant principal com.sun.security.auth.SolarisPrincipal * {
 *      permission javax.security.auth.PrivateCredentialPermission
 *              "* self",
 *              "read";
 *    };
 * </pre>
 *
 * The following grants all Subjects permission to access their own
 * private Credentials:
 *
 * <pre>
 *   grant principal * * {
 *      permission javax.security.auth.PrivateCredentialPermission
 *              "* self",
 *              "read";
 *    };
 * </pre>
