Interface PermissionContext

All Known Implementing Classes:

public interface PermissionContext

Represents the context in which a permission evaluation is to be made. Permission requests are of the form: subject, verb, object (eg. "User fred wishes to comment on ABC-123"), where: subject = User object verb = permission Id object = Issue, project etc. A PermissionContext encapsulates the object.

To create PermissionContext objects, use the PermissionContextFactory
