public interface PermissionCheck
This interface is implemented by components to enable privileged code to
 check whether the component has a given permission.
 This is typically used when a privileged component (e.g. the container) is
 performing an action on behalf of an untrusted component (e.g. a web
 application) without the current thread having passed through a code source
 provided by the untrusted component. Because the current thread has not
 passed through a code source provided by the untrusted component the
 SecurityManager assumes the code is trusted so the standard checking
 mechanisms can't be used.
