                 Key: SECURITY-318
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/SECURITY-318
             Project: JBoss Security and Identity Management
          Issue Type: Task
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: Security SPI
    Affects Versions: 2.0.2.CR11
            Reporter: Stefan Guilhen
            Assignee: Anil Saldhana
             Fix For: 2.0.2.GA

Currently all authorize methods in AuthorizationManager evaluate the roles of the users in order to grant access to a resource. We need an authorize(Resource, Identity, Permission) method that would delegate the decision to the ACL layer when ACL modules have been configured.
