Class implementing the Owner interface. The initial owner principal is configured as part of the constructor.
Author: Satish Dharmaraj
/** * Class implementing the Owner interface. The * initial owner principal is configured as * part of the constructor. * @author Satish Dharmaraj */
public class OwnerImpl implements Owner { private Group ownerGroup; public OwnerImpl(Principal owner) { ownerGroup = new GroupImpl("AclOwners"); ownerGroup.addMember(owner); }
Adds an owner. Owners can modify ACL contents and can disassociate ACLs from the objects they protect in the AclConfig interface. The caller principal must be a part of the owners list of the ACL in order to invoke this method. The initial owner is configured at ACL construction time.
Params:
  • caller – the principal who is invoking this method.
  • owner – The owner that should be added to the owners list.
Throws:
Returns:true if success, false if already an owner.

public synchronized boolean addOwner(Principal caller, Principal owner) throws NotOwnerException { if (!isOwner(caller)) throw new NotOwnerException(); ownerGroup.addMember(owner); return false; }
Delete owner. If this is the last owner in the ACL, an exception is raised. The caller principal must be a part of the owners list of the ACL in order to invoke this method.
Params:
  • caller – the principal who is invoking this method.
  • owner – The owner to be removed from the owners list.
Throws:
  • NotOwnerException – if the caller principal is not on the owners list of the Acl.
  • LastOwnerException – if there is only one owner left in the group, then deleteOwner would leave the ACL owner-less. This exception is raised in such a case.
Returns:true if the owner is removed, false if the owner is not part of the owners list.
