Losing Permissions.

Hi,

My signed Applet has the following classes...

package com.beep;
import java.security.AccessController;
import java.security.AllPermission;
public class Boop extends BoopImpl
 {
 public static void init()
  {
  try{
   AccessController.checkPermission(new AllPermission());
   DB.print("#4 AllPermission=OK");
   }catch(Throwable t){
   DB.print("#4 AllPermission=FAIL");
   }
  BoopImpl.init();
  }
 }

package com.beep;
import com.beep.DB;
import java.security.AccessController;
import java.security.AllPermission;
public abstract class BoopImpl
 {
 public static void init()
  {
  try{
   AccessController.checkPermission(new AllPermission());
   DB.print("#5 AllPermission=OK");
   }catch(Throwable t){
   DB.print("#5 AllPermission=FAIL");
   }
  }
 }

My output is as follows...

TestRunner START
java.runtime.name #2=Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment
#2 AllPermission=OK
#4 AllPermission=OK
#5 AllPermission=FAIL


BoopImpl has the same package as Boop.
BoopImpl has the same ProtectionDomain as Boop.

Can anyone please explain why the thread suddenly loses permissions?

Penny

Which exception is thrown? AccessControlException?
