I'm exploring the acl_* POSIX APIs on Leopard (and assuming the same code will work on TIger, please correct me if i'm wrong), and so far, all I get from acl_get_file() is error 22, "invalid argument". Here's my (very short) test, can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong? Two quick things about this... first of all, the only ACL_TYPE that is supported is ACL_TYPE_EXTENDED, so you have to use that on darwin. Second, just be aware that if there are no ACL entries actually on a file, you're going to get ENOENT returned, which can be quite misleading as the file actually does exist but simply doesn't have an ACL record associated with it :) I would suggest using acl_get_fd(3) instead. This way, you will know if a file doesn't exist because the call to open(2) will fail, so if acl_get_fd(3) fails and errno is ENOENT then you know that it just doesn't have any ACL record associated with it. Also, acl_get_fd(3) doesn't take an acl_type_t so it's less confusing, the only parameter is the file descriptor. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
