public interface BasicAclDao

Represents a data access object that can return the BasicAclEntrys applying to a given ACL object identity.

BasicAclDao implementations are responsible for interpreting a given AclObjectIdentity and being able to lookup and return the corresponding BasicAclEntry[]s.

BasicAclDaos many, but are not required to, allow the backend ACL repository to specify the class of BasicAclEntry implementations that should be returned.
