The ${application} policy in the Java™ 2 policy security files (for example
was.policy) applies only to the EAR project.
If you are using any of the following servers:
- WebSphere® v5.x
test environment server1
- WebSphere Application
Server v6.0 with Run server with resources within the workspace enabled
The policy will not affect the modules that are contained in the EAR,
for example EJB, Web, or connector module. The security policy of the modules
should be set using the individual modules policies, for example using ${ejbComponent},
${webComponent}, and ${connectorComponent}.
