0.18.6: What are permissions?

A permission is an (application-methodgroup) pair that a user either has or does not have. The possible permissions are generated by combining the name of the application with the name of each method group.

For example, if you have an application named Savings for which the six default method groups are used, the following permissions result:

A user who has a permission has access to those methods in that application. For example, the Savings-WriteMethods permission allows access to write methods in the Savings application.
