Example: acl_access = acl_get_fd_np(fs, ACL_TYPE_ACCESS| ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT | ACL_TYPE_EXTENDED) ; Or acl_access1 = acl_get_fd_np(fs, ACL_TYPE_ACCESS) ; acl_access2 = acl_get_fd_np(fs, ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT ) ; acl_access3 = acl_get_fd_np(fs, ACL_TYPE_EXTENDED) ; Regards Gangadhr -----Original Message----- From: James Peach [mailto:jorgar@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 22, 2009 9:02 PM To: Singh, Gangadhar S (BIO) Cc: darwin-dev@lists.apple.com Subject: Re: ACL Types supported in Mac OS X 2009/4/22 Singh, Gangadhar S (BIO) <gangadhar.singh@hp.com>:

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;

ACL_TYPE_EXTENDED is supported -- James Peach | jorgar@gmail.com _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
