All Implemented Interfaces:
  `Serializable`, `Guard`

public final class SubjectDelegationPermission extends BasicPermission

Permission required by an authentication identity to perform operations on behalf of an authorization identity.

A SubjectDelegationPermission contains a name (also referred to as a "target name") but no actions list; you either have the named permission or you don't.

The target name is the name of the authorization principal classname followed by a period and the authorization principal name, that is `"PrincipalClassName.PrincipalName"`.

An asterisk may appear by itself, or if immediately preceded by a "." may appear at the end of the target name, to signify a wildcard match.

For example, "*", "javax.management.remote.JMXPrincipal.*" and "javax.management.remote.JMXPrincipal.delegate" are valid target names. The first one denotes any principal name from any principal class, the second one denotes any principal name of the concrete principal class `javax.management.remote.JMXPrincipal` and the third one denotes a concrete principal name `delegate` of the concrete principal class `javax.management.remote.JMXPrincipal`.
