package

org.springframework.security.acls

The Spring Security ACL package which implements instance-based security for domain objects.

Consider using the annotation based approach (@PreAuthorize, @PostFilter annotations) combined with a AclPermissionEvaluator in preference to the older and more verbose attribute/voter/after-invocation approach from versions before Spring Security 3.0.

Classes

AclEntryVoter	Given a domain object instance passed as a method argument, ensures the principal has appropriate permission as indicated by the `AclService`.
AclPermissionCacheOptimizer	Batch loads ACLs for collections of objects to allow optimised filtering.
AclPermissionEvaluator	Used by Spring Security's expression-based access control implementation to evaluate permissions for a particular object using the ACL module.
