All rights that you define in your project are managed in Project Management > Business Objects in the AuthorizationResources.java class. This class is automatically generated when you link a UI component to a user right, for the first time, e.g. an XdevButton Save with the CustomerSave right.


package com.company.example.business;

import com.xdev.security.authorization.Resource;
import com.xdev.security.authorization.ResourceEnum;
import com.xdev.security.authorization.ui.Authorization;

/**
 * Central collection of all authorization resources used in the project.
 */
public enum AuthorizationResources implements ResourceEnum<AuthorizationResources> {
	CUSTOMERSAVE("CustomerSave")
	;

	/**
	 * Helper method to export all resource names.
	 * <p>
	 * Right click and select 'Run As' - 'Java Application'
	 * </p>
	 */
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		for (AuthorizationResources value : AuthorizationResources.values()) {
			System.out.println(value.name);
		}
	}

	/////////////////////////////
	// implementation details //
	///////////////////////////

	private final String name;
	private Resource resource;

	private AuthorizationResources(final String name) {
		this.name = name;
	}

	@Override
	public String resourceName() {
		return this.name;
	}

	@Override
	public Resource resource() {
		if (this.resource == null) {
			this.resource = Authorization.resource(this.name);
		}

		return this.resource;
	}
}

Add rights

You can add further rights when connecting a UI component to a right by using the wizard or by simply adding other rights to this class.

package com.company.example.business;

import com.xdev.security.authorization.Resource;
import com.xdev.security.authorization.ResourceEnum;
import com.xdev.security.authorization.ui.Authorization;

/**
 * Central collection of all authorization resources used in the project.
 */
public enum AuthorizationResources implements ResourceEnum<AuthorizationResources> {
	CUSTOMERSAVE("CustomerSave"),
	CUSTOMERNEW("CustomerNew"),
    CUSTOMERUPDATE("CustomerUpdate"),
    CUSTOMERDELET("CustomerDelete"),
	PRODUCTSAVE("ProductSave"),
	PRODUCTNEW("ProductNew"),
    PRODUCTUPDATE("ProductUpdate"),
    PRODUCTDELETE("ProductDelete")
	;
