public interface UidGidSubject
extends Subject

This interface defines a Subject that has a user id (UID), a primary group id (GID) and zero or more secondary group id:s. All id:s are integers equal to or greater than zero.

A subject can be a member of several groups, but it always has just one primary group. If new entities are created by the subject, their group ownership is set to the subject's primary group.
