void	attach(SecurityManager sm) Notifies the plugin about the instance of the Security Manager to communicate with.
Description[]	describeRights() Returns an array of descriptions, one object per the plugin's access rights item.
java.lang.Object	getLibrary() Returns the plugin's exported variables and functions.
Rights	getRightsInstance(java.lang.Object[] rights) Instantiates a plugin's class that implements the Rights interface, using the array of objects representing a set of access rights fields.
java.lang.String	getTypeName() Returns the plugin resource type name as a string.
void	init() Gives chance to the plugin to initialize when all accounts are created.
boolean	isInstanceNameValid(java.lang.String resource) Checks whether a given string is a syntactically valid resource name for this resource type.
boolean	isRightsSetValid(java.lang.Object[] rights) Checks whether a given array of objects representing a set of access rights fields is acceptable.
