Hello group,

I am building an application that is plugin based. I want to create 2 APIs. 1 API is public, and all bundles can access it no matter what, but the other API has some security. I want to make it so that a given bundle can only access my security API after the User has allowed it, like in the following example:

public class SecureAPIImpl {
 public String getSecureProperty(Object id){
   bundle_id = ? <- how do i figure that out?
   if (MessageDialog("Allow Bundle " + bundle_id + " access to security property + " id + " ?"))
     return getSecureProperty(id)
   else 
     throw new AccessDeniedException("Property access denied by user");
 }
}


Please keep in mind that there is probably something simple I am missing, as I am not the most experienced.

Also note that this decision must be made by the user at runtime, because at development time, I don't know what plugins will be written, so I can't explicitly allow them.

Thanks so much for this consideration!!!

Sincerely,
Jay
