I'm attempting to write an applet that uses the xmlrpc library.
However, I'm getting the following exception when running the program
as an applet (but not as a local application):
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied
(java.util.PropertyPermission org.apache.xmlrpc.TypeFactory read)

at org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcClient.execute(XmlRpcClient.java:160)
... my code here ...
I want to grant my applet the permission to do this totally trivial
thing (reading a property), but I have no idea how to do this. I've
tried signing the applet, and that doesn't seem to make a difference.
Creating or editing the policy file is an unacceptable solution as I
want this applet runnable anywhere. Could I solve this problem, or is
it inherently broken? :-)
Sorry if this is a common or off-topic issue.
