This is the DTD that defines the schema used for the permission model.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!--
    The permissions root element
    =============================
    
    This contains one or more namespace elements, permissionSets
    and global permissions
-->

<!ELEMENT permissions (namespaces+, permissionSet*, globalPermission*)>

<!--
    The namespaces element
    ======================
    
    This contains one or more name space element.
    This defines prefixes for uris to be used when identifying types
-->

<!ELEMENT namespaces (namespace+)>



<!--
    The namespace element 
    =====================
      
      uri - the uri for the namespace
      prefix - the prefix to use for the uri in type name
-->

<!ELEMENT namespace EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST namespace uri CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ATTLIST namespace prefix CDATA #REQUIRED>


<!-- 
    The permissionSet element
    =========================                                           
 
    This contains permissionGroups, permissions and dynamic authorities 

    The type attribute identifies to which type or aspect the contained 
    definitions apply in the prefix:name form                           
 
    The exposed attribute governs if these permissions are exposed via   
    getExposedPermissions() on the permission model                     
      all - exposes all permission groups                               
      selected - only the permission groups that say they are           
                 explicitly exposed are exposed                         
-->

<!ELEMENT permissionSet (permissionGroup*, permission*, dynamicAuthority*)>
<!ATTLIST permissionSet type CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ATTLIST permissionSet expose (all | selected) "all">

<!-- 
    The permissionGroup element
    ===========================
    
    A permission group builds a new permisison group      
    using existing permission groups. These are specified 
    by the includePermissionGroup element.
    
    name - The simple name of the permission. The full name includes 
           the type uri from the outer permissionSet
           
    type - If the permission group extends another then this attribute can be used
           to specify the type it extends. Normally it would assume this follows
           the data dictionary type hierarchy.
           
    extends - does this permission group extend one that already exists?
    
    expose - if the the containing permission set does not expose all permission groups
             specify if this particular permission group is exposed or not.
             
    allowFullControl - if true, this permission group effectively grants all permissions
    
    requiresType - does this permissionGroup require the type (as specified on the containing permission set)
                   to be present. This is useful for permission groups tied to aspects. If false, the permission
                   group applies to all types - as they could have the aspect. If true, the permission group
                   only makes sense if the aspect has been applied 
 -->
 
<!ELEMENT permissionGroup (includePermissionGroup* )>
<!ATTLIST permissionGroup name CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ATTLIST permissionGroup type CDATA #IMPLIED>
<!ATTLIST permissionGroup extends (true | false) "false">
<!ATTLIST permissionGroup expose (true | false) "false">
<!ATTLIST permissionGroup allowFullControl (true | false) "false" >
<!ATTLIST permissionGroup requiresType (true | false) "true">

<!--
	The includePermissionGroup element
	==================================
	
	type - the type on which to find the permission group to include
	
	permissionGroup - the name of the permission group to include as defined on the type
-->

<!ELEMENT includePermissionGroup EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST includePermissionGroup type CDATA #IMPLIED>
<!ATTLIST includePermissionGroup permissionGroup CDATA #REQUIRED>


<!--
    The permission element
    ======================
    
    Define a base permission. The permission groups to which this permission
    applies are defined in the grantedToGroup element. Other permissions 
    which are required or implied by this permission can be defined using 
    requiredPermission elements.

	name - as permissionGroup
	
	expose - as permissionGroup
	
	requiresType - as permissionGroup  
    
-->

<!ELEMENT permission (grantedToGroup*, requiredPermission* )>
<!ATTLIST permission name CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ATTLIST permission expose (true | false) "false">
<!ATTLIST permission requiresType (true | false) "true">


<!--
	The dynamicAuthorities element
	==============================
	
	Dynamic authorities are defined in the context of a type but this
	information is currently unused.
	
	evaluator - the class path for an implementation of DynamicAuthority
-->

<!ELEMENT dynamicAuthority EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST dynamicAuthority evaluator CDATA #REQUIRED>



<!--
    The requiredPermission element
    ==============================
    
    name - the name of the required permission or permission group
    
    type - the type of the required permission or permission group
    
    on - if required permission must be present on the node, its primary parent, or its children 
    
    imples - false - the permission wil be checked
           - true - the permission is effectively granted along with this one.  
	
	       This will normally be false. For example, to require read permission on the
	       parent to be able to read the node. This requirement would be recursive,
	       as read on any node woudl require read on the parent of that node.
	
	       If true this is the case where this permission allows the user to 
	       take another action as it is required to carry out the first. Normally
	       you would protect the method call to require both permissions. This 
	       does really grant the other permission. If a permission A is defined that 
	       requires another permission B, with implies true, then granting someone
	       permission A will also grant permission B. If implies is false, then granting
	       A will not allow A until permission B is also available.

<!--
    The grantedToGroup element
    ==========================
    
    This identifies to a permissionGroup to which a permission is granted
    
    type - the type on which the permissionGroup is defined
    
    permissionGroup - the name of the permission group

<!--
    The globalPermissions element
    =============================

	A global permission assignment.
	
	authority - the string representation of the authority
	
	permission - the permission that is granted (this can be the simple name if it is unique
	             or the fully qualified version if not.)
