Class PermissionScope

java.lang.Object
hudson.security.PermissionScope
public final class PermissionScope extends Object
Represents the model class Permission acts on and scoped to.

This abstraction primarily controls what permissions are configurable at what level.

For example, "create an item" is scoped to ItemGroup in the sense that it "acts" on the item group object (and therefore it won't make sense to control this permission at more finer scope, such as Run.)

Every Permission belongs to a set of scopes. Each scope is to be represented as a constant. This class defines a few constants, but plugins can define their own.
