      // Build property permissions collection
      PropertyPermission permission = 
         new PropertyPermission("java.*", "read");
      permissions = permission.newPermissionCollection();
      permissions.add(permission);
      permissions.add(new PropertyPermission("java.home.*", "read,write"));
      
      // Check permissions
      checkFileReadPermission("java.home");
      checkFileWritePermission("java.home");
      checkFileReadPermission("java.home.usr");
      checkFileWritePermission("java.home.usr");
   }

   private static void checkFileReadPermission(String path) {
      // Check permission on read action
      if(permissions.implies(new PropertyPermission(path, "read"))) {
         System.out.println("Has permissions on "+path+" for read");
      }
   }
   
   private static void checkFileWritePermission(String path) {
      // Check permission on read action
      if(permissions.implies(new PropertyPermission(path, "write"))) {
         System.out.println("Has permissions on "+path+" for write");
      }
   }
}

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result:

Has permissions on java.home for read
Has permissions on java.home.usr for read
