/**
* This package contains much of the implementation code for JACC.
*
*
* JACC is the EE standard for taking care of the authorization aspects
* of security.
*
*
* Code in this package translates constraints
* from the web and EJB descriptors that are pre-parsed by Payara into
* various JACC Permission instances.
* These instances are stored into a pluggable PolicyConfiguration. By
* default Payara is configured to use the one from "jacc.provider.file".
*
* This package also contains the web authorization manager, which is the entry
* point for all authorization decisions from the web layer. This too
* is delegated to a pluggable component called the JACC Policy Provider.
*
*
* The pluggable JACC components are loaded by a class in nucleus:
* {@link com.sun.enterprise.security.PolicyLoader}
*
