 MutexAccessRule(System::Security::Principal::IdentityReference ^ identity, System::Security::AccessControl::MutexRights eventRights, System::Security::AccessControl::AccessControlType type);

public MutexAccessRule (System.Security.Principal.IdentityReference identity, System.Security.AccessControl.MutexRights eventRights, System.Security.AccessControl.AccessControlType type);

Public Sub New (identity As IdentityReference, eventRights As MutexRights, type As AccessControlType)

Parameters

Exceptions

Remarks

To wait on a Mutex (by calling the WaitOne, WaitAny or WaitAll method), a user must have MutexRights.Synchronize access. To release the mutex, by calling the ReleaseMutex method, the user must have MutexRights.Modify access.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of this constructor to create MutexAccessRule objects. The example creates a MutexSecurity object, adds rules that allow and deny various rights for the current user, and displays the resulting pair of rules. The example then allows new rights for the current user and displays the result, showing that the new rights are merged with the existing Allow rule.

{
    public static void Main()
    {
        // Create a string representing the current user.
        string user = Environment.UserDomainName + "\\" + 
            Environment.UserName;

        // Create a security object that grants no access.
        MutexSecurity mSec = new MutexSecurity();

        // Add a rule that grants the current user the 
        // right to enter or release the mutex.
        MutexAccessRule rule = new MutexAccessRule(user, 
            MutexRights.Synchronize | MutexRights.Modify, 
            AccessControlType.Allow);
        mSec.AddAccessRule(rule);

        // Add a rule that denies the current user the 
        // right to change permissions on the mutex.
        rule = new MutexAccessRule(user, 
            MutexRights.ChangePermissions, 
            AccessControlType.Deny);
        mSec.AddAccessRule(rule);

        // Display the rules in the security object.
        ShowSecurity(mSec);

        // Add a rule that allows the current user the 
        // right to read permissions on the mutex. This rule
        // is merged with the existing Allow rule.

            MutexRights.ReadPermissions,

Remarks

To wait on a Mutex (by calling the WaitOne, WaitAny or WaitAll method), a user must have MutexRights.Synchronize access. To release the mutex, by calling the ReleaseMutex methods, the user must have MutexRights.Modify access.

This constructor is equivalent to creating an NTAccount object, by passing identity to the NTAccount.NTAccount(String) constructor, and passing the newly created NTAccount object to the MutexAccessRule(IdentityReference, MutexRights, AccessControlType) constructor.
