JBAS-3374: Authorization Framework for Policy Decision Modules For information on the behavior of the Authorization Modules, For Authorization Modules behavior(Required, Requisite, Sufficient and Optional) please refer to the javadoc for @see javax.security.auth.login.Configuration The AuthorizationContext derives the AuthorizationInfo(configuration for the modules) in the following way: a) If there has been an injection of ApplicationPolicy, then it will be used. b) Util.getApplicationPolicy will be used(which relies on SecurityConfiguration static class). c) Flag an error that there is no available Application Policy
