15.6.9. RuleBasedPermissionResolver

One of the built-in permission resolvers provided by Seam. This evaluates permissions based on a set of Drools (JBoss Rules) security rules. Some advantages to the rule engine are a centralized location for the business logic used to evaluate user permissions, and speed — Drools algorithms are very efficient for evaluating large numbers of complex rules involving multiple conditions.

15.6.9.1. Requirements

If you want to use the rule-based permission features provided by Seam Security, Drools requires the following JAR files to be distributed with your project:
  • drools-api.jar
  • drools-compiler.jar
  • drools-core.jar
  • janino.jar
  • antlr-runtime.jar
  • mvel2.jar
