AddScopedPolicyIDAce function

The AddScopedPolicyIDAce function adds a SYSTEM_SCOPED_POLICY_ID_ACE access control entry (ACE) to the end of a system access control list (SACL). A SYSTEM_SCOPED_POLICY_ID_ACE structure specifies a central access policy (CAP) to be associated with the resource and can be used during access checks. The set of standard access rights are defined in the Standard Access Rights topic.

Syntax

BOOL WINAPI AddScopedPolicyIDAce(
  _Inout_ PACL  pAcl,
  _In_    DWORD dwAceRevision,
  _In_    DWORD AceFlags,
  _In_    DWORD AccessMask,
  _In_    PSID  pSid
);

Parameters

pAcl [in, out]

A pointer to an access control list (ACL). This function adds an ACE to this ACL. The value of this parameter cannot be NULL.

dwAceRevision [in]

Specifies the revision level of the ACL being modified. This value can be ACL_REVISION or ACL_REVISION_DS. Use ACL_REVISION_DS if the ACL contains object-specific ACEs.

AceFlags [in]

A set of bit flags that control ACE inheritance. The function sets these flags in the AceFlags member of the ACE_HEADER structure of the new ACE.

For consistency with the Windows 8 Advanced File Permissions UI, applications should specify the CONTAINER_INHERIT_ACE and OBJECT_INHERIT_ACE flags in the AceFlags parameter.

This parameter can be a combination of the following values.

Value	Meaning
CONTAINER_INHERIT_ACE 2 (0x2)	The ACE is inherited by the container objects.
INHERIT_ONLY_ACE 8 (0x8)	The ACE does not apply to the object the ACE is assigned to, but it can be inherited by child objects.
INHERITED_ACE 16 (0x10)	Indicates an inherited ACE. This flag allows operations that change the security on a tree of objects to modify inherited ACEs while not changing ACEs that were directly applied to the object.
NO_PROPAGATE_INHERIT_ACE 4 (0x4)	The OBJECT_INHERIT_ACE and CONTAINER_INHERIT_ACE bits are not propagated to an inherited ACE.
OBJECT_INHERIT_ACE 1 (0x1)	The ACE is inherited by non-container objects.

 

AccessMask [in]

Must be zero for Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012.

pSid [in]

A pointer to the SID (S-1-17-*) that identifies the Central Access Policy to be associated with the resource.

Return value

If the function succeeds, it returns TRUE.

If the function fails, it returns FALSE. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
