Name

Interface java.security.Guard

Synopsis

An object of a class that implements the Guard interface may be used to protect access to a resource. In typical usage, a guard is an object of the Permission class, so that access to the guarded resource is granted if and only if the current thread has been granted the given permission. This interface is used by the GuardedObject class to guard access to another object.
