GetSecurityDescriptorOwner

The GetSecurityDescriptorOwner function retrieves the owner information from a security descriptor.

BOOL GetSecurityDescriptorOwner(

PSECURITY_DESCRIPTOR pSecurityDescriptor,	// address of security descriptor
PSID *pOwner,	// address of pointer to owner security identifier (SID)
LPBOOL lpbOwnerDefaulted	// address of flag for default
);

Parameters

pSecurityDescriptor

Points to a SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR structure whose owner information the function retrieves.

pOwner

Points to a pointer to a SID structure identifying the owner when the function returns. (A SID is a security identifier.) If the security descriptor does not contain an owner, the function sets the pointer pointed to by pOwner to NULL and ignores the remaining output parameter, lpbOwnerDefaulted. If the security descriptor contains an owner, the function sets the pointer pointed to by pOwner to the address of the security descriptor's owner SID structure and provides a valid value for the variable pointed to by lpbOwnerDefaulted.

lpbOwnerDefaulted

Points to a flag set to the value of the SE_OWNER_DEFAULTED flag in the SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR_CONTROL structure when the function returns. If the value stored in the variable pointed to by the pOwner parameter is NULL, no value is set.

Return Values

If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.

If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
