MakeSelfRelativeSD
The MakeSelfRelativeSD function creates a security descriptor in self-relative format by using a
security descriptor in absolute format as a template.
BOOL MakeSelfRelativeSD(
PSECURITY_DESCRIPTOR pAbsoluteSecurityDescriptor,
| // address of absolute SD
| PSECURITY_DESCRIPTOR pSelfRelativeSecurityDescriptor,
| // address self-relative SD
| LPDWORD lpdwBufferLength
| // address of SD size
| );
|
|
Parameters
pAbsoluteSecurityDescriptor
Points to a SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR structure in absolute format. The function creates a version of this security
descriptor in self-relative format without modifying the original.
pSelfRelativeSecurityDescriptor
Points to a buffer the function fills with a security descriptor in
self-relative format.
lpdwBufferLength
Points to a variable specifying the size of the buffer pointed to by the pSelfRelativeSecurityDescriptor parameter. If the buffer is not large enough for the security descriptor, the
function fails and sets this variable to the minimum required size.
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.
Remarks
A security descriptor in absolute format contains pointers to the information
it contains, rather than containing the information itself. A security
descriptor in self-relative format contains the information in a contiguous block of
memory. In a self-relative security descriptor, a SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR structure always starts the information, but the security descriptor's other
components can follow the structure in any order. Instead of using memory
addresses, the components of the security descriptor are identified by offsets from
the beginning of the security descriptor. This format is useful when an
security descriptor must be stored on a floppy disk or transmitted by means of a
communications protocol.
A server that copies secured objects to various media can use the MakeSelfRelativeSD function to create a self-relative security descriptor from an absolute
security descriptor and the MakeAbsoluteSD function to create an absolute security descriptor from a self-relative
security descriptor.

Nostalgia .Net |
|
.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
