Betreff: Re: AW: defining security without the tools
Hi Mike,
Unfortunately there are no direct API's to modify security; I mean the
security manager only does reads from security repository, not writes.
Right now the existing security UI manages things using the SDO's that
were defined against the security tables. If your familair with the
framework you should be able to dig up the SDO names without too much
trouble. The actual implementation is based entirely upon a single
table (well mostly, the user table is also included) in the database so
it should actually be fairly simple to write.
I suggest that a bug/enhancement be logged in issuezilla that this needs
to be supported.
One thing I will point out here, is that the security system is being
enhanced in either the upcoming release or the next one to support a lot
more security features, although this may not require much, since the
underlying system isn't changing a lot, just the logic. Take this into
consideration when building your UI, you may need to revisit it down the
road.

Matt,
does this mean that there are no procedures/SDO´s or something similar
that maintain security settings ?
Do I have to create/update the corresponding database tables directly
?!?

Hi Mike,
Check out docs.possenet.org. There is a full set of documentation on
the structure within the database of how security information is stored.
You'll probably need to use the Open API for SDOs in order to do it.

Hi all,
we want to set the security definitions for repository objects from
outside the progress tools (in fact we are writing our own security
maintenance tool in VB).
After looking through the documentation of the security manager API it
seems that there are only methods for doing security checks, but not for
defining the security restrictions.
Is this correct or am I overlooking something ?
Any info on how to get hands on related documentation would be greatly
appreciated!
Kind regards
