Abstract
A computer implemented process for identifying conflicts between policies for a method invocable by an object is described, in which the method is a member of at least one statically defined method grouping having a corresponding policy. The process comprises, for each method grouping, obtaining each method which is a member of the method grouping, associating therewith the corresponding method grouping policy, and comparing policies associated with methods which are members of two or more method groupings to identify conflicts.
