public interface AlfrescoSecureContext extends net.sf.acegisecurity.context.security.SecureContext
Extensions for the Alfresco security context. This is based on the Linux model and supports real, effective and stored authorities The real authority is used for auditing and reporting who the user is etc. The effective authority is used for permission checks. RunAs support leaves the real authority and changes only the effective authority That means "special" code can run code as system but still be audited as Joe In the future scrips etc can support a setUId flag and run as the owner of the script. If the script chooses to do this .... A method invocation could do the same (after entry security checks) TODO: extent runAs to take a nodeRef context - it can then set the stored atc and set this as effective if required.- Author:
