- Thread-topic: ACL Types supported in Mac OS X
Hi ,
According to man
pages of acl_get_fd_np(), it says that it's possible to retrieval any type of
ACL from a file descriptor.
But in the /usr/sys/acl.h, I see most
of the ACL types are commented as not supported, bit confuse
here.
Could anybody clarify what acl type are
supported?
/* 23.2.6 Individual ACL types */
typedef enum
{
ACL_TYPE_EXTENDED = 0x00000100,
/* Posix 1003.1e types - not supported
*/
ACL_TYPE_ACCESS =
0x00000000,
ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT =
0x00000001,
/* The following
types are defined on FreeBSD/Linux - not supported
*/
ACL_TYPE_AFS =
0x00000002,
ACL_TYPE_CODA =
0x00000003,
ACL_TYPE_NTFS =
0x00000004,
ACL_TYPE_NWFS =
0x00000005
} acl_type_t;

Subject: ACL API ( acl_copy_ext) and ( acl_copy_int) not available for
application!!!
Importance: High
Hi,
In Linux, we have
acl_copy_ext() and acl_copy_int() used for managing the data exchange between
system-managed space and user managed space.
The above APIs are not
documented in the man pages of Mac OS X 10.4 but are available in its libc
library.
Will Apple document these APIs for other application to use or
not?
If these APIs are not available for other applications, what are the
other appropriate APIs to replace them in Mac
OSX.
Regards
Gangadhar
