FileSystemSecurity.AccessRuleFactory Method

Note: This method is new in the .NET Framework version 2.0.

Initializes a new instance of the FileSystemAccessRule class that represents a new access control rule for the specified user, with the specified access rights, access control, and flags.

Namespace: System.Security.AccessControl
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

public override sealed AccessRule AccessRuleFactory (
	IdentityReference identityReference,
	int accessMask,
	bool isInherited,
	InheritanceFlags inheritanceFlags,
	PropagationFlags propagationFlags,
	AccessControlType type
)
public final AccessRule AccessRuleFactory (
	IdentityReference identityReference, 
	int accessMask, 
	boolean isInherited, 
	InheritanceFlags inheritanceFlags, 
	PropagationFlags propagationFlags, 
	AccessControlType type
)
public override final function AccessRuleFactory (
	identityReference : IdentityReference, 
	accessMask : int, 
	isInherited : boolean, 
	inheritanceFlags : InheritanceFlags, 
	propagationFlags : PropagationFlags, 
	type : AccessControlType
) : AccessRule

Parameters

identityReference

An IdentityReference object that represents a user account.

accessMask

An integer that specifies an access type.

isInherited

true if the access rule is inherited; otherwise, false.

inheritanceFlags

One of the InheritanceFlags values that specifies how to propagate access masks to child objects.

propagationFlags

One of the PropagationFlags values that specifies how to propagate Access Control Entries (ACEs) to child objects.

type

One of the AccessControlType values that specifies whether access is allowed or denied.

Return Value

A new FileSystemAccessRule object that represents a new access control rule for the specified user, with the specified access rights, access control, and flags.
Exception typeCondition

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

The accessMask, inheritanceFlags, propagationFlags, or type parameters specify an invalid value.

ArgumentNullException

The identityReference parameter is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

-or-

The accessMask parameter is zero.

ArgumentException

The identityReference parameter is neither of type SecurityIdentifier, nor of a type such as NTAccount that can be converted to type SecurityIdentifier.

The recommended way to create access control rules is to use the constructors of the FileSystemAccessRule class.

The return type of the AccessRuleFactory method is the base class, AccessRule, but the return value can be cast safely to the derived class.
