Managing Policy Files

By default, the JDK uses the policy files located in
file:${java.home}/lib/security/java.policy file:${user.home}/.java.policy
These policy files are specified in the default security file:
${java.home}/lib/security/java.security
The final policy is the union of all granted permissions in all policy files. To specify an additional policy file, you can set the java.security.policy system property at the command line:
> java -Djava.security.manager -Djava.security.policy=someURL MyApp or > appletviewer -J-Djava.security.policy=someURL HTMLfile
To ignore the policies in the java.security file, and only use the specified policy, use `==' instead of `=':
> java -Djava.security.manager -Djava.security.policy==someURL MyApp
Additional policy files can also be added to the java.security file. For more information on policy files, see
