Mamta A. Satoor updated DERBY-1330:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: AuthorizationModelForDerbySQLStandardAuthorizationV2.html

I did a little research on Dan's suggestion about using existing system table 
SYS.SYSDEPENDS rather than introducing a new system table to keep track of 
views'/triggers'/constraints' dependencies on privileges. I think 
SYS.SYSDEPENDS should serve the purpose. Based on that, I have updated the 
functional spec(1st 2 paragraphs under section "DDL support for views, triggers 
and constraints")  and attached it as 
AuthorizationModelForDerbySQLStandardAuthorizationV2.html. Any feedback will be 
appreciated.

> Additional work needs to be done for grant/revoke to make sure that only 
> users with required privileges can access various database objects. In order 
> to do that, first we need to collect the privilege requirements for various 
> database objects and store them in SYS.SYSREQUIREDPERM. Once we have this 
> information then when a user tries to access an object, the required 
> SYS.SYSREQUIREDPERM privileges for the object will be checked against the 
> user privileges in SYS.SYSTABLEPERMS, SYS.SYSCOLPERMS and 
> SYS.SYSROUTINEPERMS. The database object access will succeed only if the user 
> has the necessary privileges.
> SYS.SYSTABLEPERMS, SYS.SYSCOLPERMS and SYS.SYSROUTINEPERMS are already 
> populated by Satheesh's work on DERBY-464. But SYS.SYSREQUIREDPERM doesn't 
> have any information in it at this point and hence no runtime privilege 
> checking is getting done at this point.
