From e25a70a7d1c2016eaeff9c630df9109e715bba3b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris McDonough Date: Thu, 9 Sep 2010 17:46:49 +0000 Subject: Features -------- - In support of making it easier to configure applications which are "secure by default", a default permission feature was added. If supplied, the default permission is used as the permission string to all view registrations which don't otherwise name a permission. These APIs are in support of that: - A new constructor argument was added to the Configurator: ``default_permission``. - A new method was added to the Configurator: ``set_default_permission``. - A new ZCML directive was added: ``default_permission``. Documentation ------------- - Added documentation for the ``default_permission`` ZCML directive. - Added documentation for the ``default_permission`` constructor value and the ``set_default_permission`` method in the Configurator API documentation. - Added a new section to the "security" chapter named "Setting a Default Permission". - Document ``renderer_globals_factory`` and ``request_factory`` arguments to Configurator constructor. --- docs/glossary.rst | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) (limited to 'docs/glossary.rst') diff --git a/docs/glossary.rst b/docs/glossary.rst index 81f5cb797..4c1c0ebab 100644 --- a/docs/glossary.rst +++ b/docs/glossary.rst @@ -10,6 +10,10 @@ Glossary A ``WebOb`` request object.
