Security Level Indicators

Applet Security Indicators

When you set up an applet security data structure, you must use the JMNetworkSecurityOptions type to specify the security level for the applet when accessing a network.

enum JMNetworkSecurityOptions {
   eNoNetworkAccess = 0, 
   eAppletHostAccess, 
   eUnrestrictedAccess
   };

Constant descriptions

eNoNetworkAccess

The applet cannot access any networks.

eAppletHostAccess

The applet may access only its host server.

eUnrestrictedAccess

The applet has unrestricted access to all networks.

In addition, you must use the JMFileSystemOptions type to specify the security level allowed for applets accessing the local file system.

enum JMFileSystemOptions {
   eNoFSAccess = 0,
   eLocalAppletAccess,
   eAllFSAccess
};

Constant descriptions

eNoFSAccess

Applets have no access to the local file system.

eLocalAppletAccess

Only applets that are stored locally may access the local file system.

eAllFSAccess

All applets have access to the local file system.

See "The AWT Context" for more information about using these security indicator types.
