This class extends NTSid and represents a Windows NT user's primary group SID.

Principals such as this NTSidPrimaryGroupPrincipal may be associated with a particular Subject to augment that Subject with an additional identity. Refer to the Subject class for more information on how to achieve this. Authorization decisions can then be based upon the Principals associated with a Subject.

This class will be replaced by PrimaryGroupIDPrincipal in future releases of JAAS.
