+/**
+ * The Permission Admin service allows management agents to manage the
+ * permissions of bundles. There is at most one Permission Admin service present
+ * in the OSGi environment.
+ * <p>
+ * Access to the Permission Admin service is protected by corresponding
+ * <code>ServicePermission</code>. In addition <code>AdminPermission</code> is
+ * required to actually set permissions.
+ *
+ * <p>
+ * Bundle permissions are managed using a permission table. A bundle's location
+ * serves as the key into this permission table. The value of a table entry is
+ * the set of permissions (of type <code>PermissionInfo</code>) granted to the
+ * bundle named by the given location. A bundle may have an entry in the
+ * permission table prior to being installed in the Framework.
+ *
+ * <p>
+ * The permissions specified in <code>setDefaultPermissions</code> are used as the
+ * default permissions which are granted to all bundles that do not have an
+ * entry in the permission table.
+ *
+ * <p>
+ * Any changes to a bundle's permissions in the permission table will take
+ * effect no later than when bundle's <code>java.security.ProtectionDomain</code>
+ * is next involved in a permission check, and will be made persistent.
+ *
+ * <p>
+ * Only permission classes on the system classpath or from an exported package
+ * are considered during a permission check. Additionally, only permission
+ * classes that are subclasses of <code>java.security.Permission</code> and define
+ * a 2-argument constructor that takes a <i>name </i> string and an <i>actions
+ * </i> string can be used.
+ * <p>
+ * Permissions implicitly granted by the Framework (for example, a bundle's
+ * permission to access its persistent storage area) cannot be changed, and are
+ * not reflected in the permissions returned by <code>getPermissions</code> and
+ * <code>getDefaultPermissions</code>.
+ *
+ * @version $Revision: 1.7 $
