EnvironmentPermissionAttribute Class
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
[SerializableAttribute] [ComVisibleAttribute(true)] [AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets::Assembly|AttributeTargets::Class|AttributeTargets::Struct|AttributeTargets::Constructor|AttributeTargets::Method, AllowMultiple=true, Inherited=false)] public ref class EnvironmentPermissionAttribute sealed : public CodeAccessSecurityAttribute
/** @attribute SerializableAttribute() */ /** @attribute ComVisibleAttribute(true) */ /** @attribute AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Assembly|AttributeTargets.Class|AttributeTargets.Struct|AttributeTargets.Constructor|AttributeTargets.Method, AllowMultiple=true, Inherited=false) */ public final class EnvironmentPermissionAttribute extends CodeAccessSecurityAttribute

Not applicable.
The scope of the declaration that is allowed depends on the SecurityAction that is used.
The security information declared by a security attribute is stored in the metadata of the attribute target and is accessed by the system at run time. Security attributes are used only for declarative security. For imperative security, use the corresponding permission class.
Environment variable names are case-insensitive. Multiple environment variable names are specified by separating the names using PathSeparator.
The following code example demonstrates how to request the EnvironmentPermission by using the EnvironmentPermissionAttribute class, indicating that at a minimum this permission is required to run the code.
[assembly:EnvironmentPermissionAttribute(SecurityAction::RequestMinimum, Read="COMPUTERNAME;USERNAME;USERDOMAIN")]; //In C++, you must specify that you are using the assembly scope when making a request.
/** @assembly EnvironmentPermissionAttribute(SecurityAction.RequestMinimum,
Read = "COMPUTERNAME;USERNAME;USERDOMAIN")
*/
// In VJ#, you must specify that you are using the assembly scope when
// making a request.
The following example shows how to demand that the calling code have EnvironmentPermission. Demands are typically made in managed libraries (DLLs) to help protect methods or classes from potentially harmful code.
/** @attribute EnvironmentPermissionAttribute(SecurityAction.Demand,
Unrestricted = true)
