| ## sec_acl_get_access(3sec) Lists the access (permission set) that the caller has for an object Synopsis #include <dce/daclif.h> void sec_acl_get_access( sec_acl_handle_t h, uuid_t *manager_type, sec_acl_permset_t *net_rights, error_status_t *status); Parameters Input h A handle referring to the object whose ACL is to be accessed. Use sec_acl_bind( ) to create this handle. manager_type A pointer to the UUID identifying the manager type of the ACL in question. There may be more than one type of ACL manager protecting the object whose ACL is bound to the input handle. Use this parameter to distinguish them. Use sec_acl_get_manager_types( ) to acquire a list of the manager types protecting a given object. Output net_rights The output list of access rights in sec_acl_permset_t form. This is a 32-bit set of permission flags supported by the manager type. status A pointer to the completion status. On successful completion, the routine returns error_status_ok. Otherwise, it returns an error. Description The sec_acl_get_access( ) routine determines the complete extent of access to the specified object by the calling process. Although the sec_acl_test_access( ) and sec_acl_test_access_on_behalf( ) routines are the preferred method of testing access, this routine is useful for implementing operations like the conventional UNIX access function. Permissions Required The sec_acl_get_access( ) routine requires at least one permission of any kind on the object for which the access is to be returned. Files /usr/include/dce/daclif.idl The idl file from which dce/daclif.h was derived. Errors The following describes a partial list of errors that might be returned. Refer to the OSF DCE Problem Determination Guide for complete descriptions of all error messages. error_status_ok The call was successful.
