public @interface Secured

Java 5 annotation for describing service layer security attributes.

The Secured annotation is used to define a list of security configuration attributes for business methods. This annotation can be used as a Java 5 alternative to XML configuration.

For example:

     @Secured ({"ROLE_USER"})
     public void create(Contact contact);

     @Secured ({"ROLE_USER", "ROLE_ADMIN"})
     public void update(Contact contact);

     @Secured ({"ROLE_ADMIN"})
     public void delete(Contact contact);
 

In TeamCity we had to move this annotation class into our code-base. Arguments are taken from Permission enum member names You must apply this annotation to implementation of the method, not to a method in interface
