/**
 * SecurityManager is a class you can extend to create your own Java
 * security policy.  By default, there is no SecurityManager installed in
 * 1.1, which means that all things are permitted to all people. The security
 * manager, if set, is consulted before doing anything with potentially
 * dangerous results, and throws a <code>SecurityException</code> if the
 * action is forbidden.
 *
 * <p>A typical check is as follows, just before the dangerous operation:<br>
 * <pre>
 * SecurityManager sm = System.getSecurityManager();
 * if (sm != null)
 *   sm.checkABC(<em>argument</em>, ...);
 * </pre>
 * Note that this is thread-safe, by caching the security manager in a local
 * variable rather than risking a NullPointerException if the mangager is
 * changed between the check for null and before the permission check.
 *
 * <p>The special method <code>checkPermission</code> is a catchall, and
 * the default implementation calls
 * <code>AccessController.checkPermission</code>. In fact, all the other
 * methods default to calling checkPermission.
 *
 * <p>Sometimes, the security check needs to happen from a different context,
 * such as when called from a worker thread. In such cases, use
 * <code>getSecurityContext</code> to take a snapshot that can be passed
 * to the worker thread:<br>
 * <pre>
 * Object context = null;
 * SecurityManager sm = System.getSecurityManager();
 * if (sm != null)
 *   context = sm.getSecurityContext(); // defaults to an AccessControlContext
 * // now, in worker thread
 * if (sm != null)
 *   sm.checkPermission(permission, context);
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>Permissions fall into these categories: File, Socket, Net, Security,
 * Runtime, Property, AWT, Reflect, and Serializable. Each of these
 * permissions have a property naming convention, that follows a hierarchical
 * naming convention, to make it easy to grant or deny several permissions
 * at once. Some permissions also take a list of permitted actions, such
 * as "read" or "write", to fine-tune control even more. The permission
 * <code>java.security.AllPermission</code> grants all permissions.
 *
 * <p>The default methods in this class deny all things to all people. You
 * must explicitly grant permission for anything you want to be legal when
 * subclassing this class.
