More specifically, it encapsulates a context and * has a single method, checkPermission, * that is equivalent to the checkPermission method * in the AccessController class, with one difference: The AccessControlContext * checkPermission method makes access decisions based on the * context it encapsulates, * rather than that of the current execution thread. * *

Thus, the purpose of AccessControlContext is for those situations where * a security check that should be made within a given context * actually needs to be done from within a * different context (for example, from within a worker thread). * *

An AccessControlContext is created by calling the * AccessController.getContext method. * The getContext method takes a "snapshot" * of the current calling context, and places * it in an AccessControlContext object, which it returns. A sample call is * the following: * *

 * 
 *   AccessControlContext acc = AccessController.getContext()
 * 
 * 
* *

* Code within a different context can subsequently call the * checkPermission method on the * previously-saved AccessControlContext object. A sample call is the * following: * *

 * 
 *   acc.checkPermission(permission)
