Answer 1

You can always Chack grepcode.com 's Method search: http://grepcode.com/search/?start=0&query=checkCallingOrSelfPermission&entity=method

PS.: Look for the ContextImpl Class to find the Implementation Full Link: http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/ext/com.google.android/android/4.3_r2.1/android/app/ContextImpl.java#ContextImpl.checkCallingOrSelfPermission%28java.lang.String%29 . You have to scroll down and wait until the class is fully loaded then you can use Cmd+F or View the raw Source.

Oh and if you already have the Source: /frameworks/base/core/java/android/app/ContextImpl.java
