[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-2263) Access control meta data: Instance references

[Heiko Braun (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-2263?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12812429#comment-12812429 ]

------------------------------------------------------------

when requesting access control meta data, we return a the 'default' policy per resource type and 'exceptions' (instance specific) 

Here's an 'exception': 

{noformat}
[("subsystem" => "datasources"),("data-source" => "ExampleDS")]={
    "read" => true,
    "write" => false,
   
    [...]
}
{noformat}

As you can see it uses the string representation of the instance address as the property key. This makes it really hard to match that key against requested resources (property keys are just String in the DMR API). 

I would prefer the instance name to become the key, and instead provide an inline address represenation, of proper ModelType.LIST (like all other address attributes):

{noformat}
"ExampleDS"={
    instanceAddress = [("subsystem" => "datasources"),("data-source" => "ExampleDS")],
     "read" => true,
    "write" => false,
   
    [...]
}
{noformat}
