/**
 * Votes if any {@link ConfigAttribute#getAttribute()} starts with a prefix indicating
 * that it is a role. The default prefix string is <Code>ROLE_</code>, but this may be
 * overridden to any value. It may also be set to empty, which means that essentially any
 * attribute will be voted on. As described further below, the effect of an empty prefix
 * may not be quite desirable.
 * <p>
 * Abstains from voting if no configuration attribute commences with the role prefix.
 * Votes to grant access if there is an exact matching
 * {@link org.springframework.security.core.GrantedAuthority} to a
 * <code>ConfigAttribute</code> starting with the role prefix. Votes to deny access if
 * there is no exact matching <code>GrantedAuthority</code> to a
 * <code>ConfigAttribute</code> starting with the role prefix.
 * <p>
 * An empty role prefix means that the voter will vote for every ConfigAttribute. When
 * there are different categories of ConfigAttributes used, this will not be optimal since
 * the voter will be voting for attributes which do not represent roles. However, this
 * option may be of some use when using pre-existing role names without a prefix, and no
 * ability exists to prefix them with a role prefix on reading them in, such as provided
 * for example in {@link org.springframework.security.core.userdetails.jdbc.JdbcDaoImpl}.
 * <p>
 * All comparisons and prefixes are case sensitive.
