## opencard.core.util
Class SystemAccess

    java.lang.Object
      opencard.core.util.SystemAccess

Direct Known Subclasses:
  MicrosoftSystemAccess, NetscapeSystemAccess

    public class SystemAccess

extends java.lang.Object

Singleton that provides access to protected system resources like file I/O, properties, native code. Thread safe: each thread can only access its own SystemAccess class.
This is the default SystemAccess class used by OpenCard. To run OpenCard under a browser install the browser specific SystemAccess class in the applets init() method as follows:
opencard.core.util.SystemAccess sys = opencard.opt.vendorX.VendorXSystemAccess(); opencard.core.util.SystemAccess.setSystemAccess(sys);

  Access system properties

### getSystemAccess

    public static SystemAccess getSystemAccess()

  Return the instance of SystemAccess associated with the current thread. If the current thread has not set its own SystemAccess instance return the default system access instance.

### loadLibrary

    public void loadLibrary(java.lang.String libName)

  Link to a native DLL.

### loadProperties

    public java.util.Properties loadProperties(java.lang.String filename)
                                        throws java.io.FileNotFoundException,
                                               java.io.IOException

  Access system properties

  Throws:
    `java.io.FileNotFoundException`
    `java.io.IOException`

### setSystemAccess

    public static void setSystemAccess(SystemAccess newSystemAccess)

  Set the SystemAccess instance for the current thread. This allows a thread to set a browser specific object that requests privileges from the browser VM by using proprietary mechanisms (e.g. netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege() )
