NAME

Apache::SiteControl::GrantAllRule - A rule that grants permission to do everything.

SYNOPSIS

In your instance of a ManagerFactory:

       use Apache::SiteControl::GrantAllRule;
       ...
    
       sub getPermissionManager
       {
          ...
    
          $manager->addRule(new Apache::SiteControl::GrantAllRule);
    
          ...
    
          return $manager;
       }

DESCRIPTION

Apache::SiteControl::GrantAllRule is a pre-built rule that grants access for all permission requests. This rule can be used to help implement a system that has a default policy of allowing access, and to which you add rules that deny access for specific cases.

Note that the loose type checking of Perl makes this inherently dangerous, since a typo is likely to fail to deny access. It is recommended that you take the opposite approach with your rules, since a typo will err on the side of denying access. The former is a security hole, the latter is a bug that people will complain about (so you can fix it).
