Field Detail

DS_ENTRY_BROWSE

public static final int DS_ENTRY_BROWSE

Allows a trustee to discover and view objects and their subordinates in the NDS tree.

(DS_ENTRY_BROWSE = 0x1)

DS_ENTRY_ADD

public static final int DS_ENTRY_ADD

Allows a trustee to create new child objects subordinate to an object in the tree.

This right is available only for objects that can have subordinates, such as containers and volumes.

(DS_ENTRY_ADD = 0x2)

DS_ENTRY_DELETE

public static final int DS_ENTRY_DELETE

Allows a trustee to delete an object.

Container objects that have subordinates cannot be deleted until the subordinates are deleted. No property right for the object can block this right.

(DS_ENTRY_DELETE = 0x4)

DS_ENTRY_RENAME

public static final int DS_ENTRY_RENAME

Allows a trustee to change the name of an object.

The value of the Name property is changed; however, only the last part of the complete name can be changed with this right. Changing other parts of the name implies a move operation.

(DS_ENTRY_RENAME = 0x8)

DS_ENTRY_SUPERVISOR

public static final int DS_ENTRY_SUPERVISOR

Grants a trustee all rights to an object and its attributes.

All rights include object, property, file or directory rights. In the case of a directory, the right applies to all subordinate directories and files. The trustee can grant any right to another user and modify the Inherited Rights Filter. The Supervisor right cannot be filtered on a file or directory, but it can be filtered on an object or property.

(DS_ENTRY_SUPERVISOR = 0x10)

DS_ENTRY_INHERIT_CTL

public static final int DS_ENTRY_INHERIT_CTL

Allows a trustee to inherit the rights granted in the ACL, and exercise these rights on subordinate objects.
