WSK_CACHE_SD

  • Article

A WSK application uses the WSK_CACHE_SD client control operation to obtain a cached copy of a security descriptor that can be passed to the WskSocket, WskSocketConnect, and WskControlSocket functions.

To obtain a cached copy of a security descriptor, a WSK application calls the WskControlClient function with the following parameters.

Parameter Value

ControlCode

WSK_CACHE_SD

InputSize

sizeof(PSECURITY_DESCRIPTOR)

InputBuffer

A pointer to a PSECURITY_DESCRIPTOR-typed variable. This variable contains a pointer to the SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR structure that defines the uncached security descriptor that is being cached.

OutputSize

sizeof(PSECURITY_DESCRIPTOR)

OutputBuffer

A pointer to a PSECURITY_DESCRIPTOR-typed variable. This variable receives a pointer to a SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR structure that describes the cached security descriptor.

OutputSizeReturned

NULL

Irp

NULL

A WSK application must release the cached copy of the security descriptor by using the WSK_RELEASE_SD client control operation when the security descriptor is no longer needed.

See the reference page for the SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR structure for more information.

The Irp parameter must be NULL for this client control operation.

Requirements

Version

Available in Windows Vista and later versions of the Windows operating systems.
