C#
public override System.Security.IPermission Union(System.Security.IPermission target);

Parameters

A new permission that represents the union of the current permission and the specified permission.

Examples

The following example creates a permission object that is the union of existing permission objects.

C#
System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInformationPermission unrestricted =
    new System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInformationPermission(
        System.Security.Permissions.PermissionState.Unrestricted);

Console.WriteLine("Is unrestricted? " + unrestricted.IsUnrestricted());

System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInformationPermission read =
    new System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInformationPermission(
        System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInformationAccess.Read);
System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInformationPermission copyPermission =
   (System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInformationPermission) read.Copy();
System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInformationPermission unionPermission =
   (System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInformationPermission) read.Union(unrestricted);
Console.WriteLine("Is subset?" + read.IsSubsetOf(unionPermission));

Remarks

The Union method returns a permission that represents all the states represented by both the current permission and the specified permission. Any demand that passes either permission passes their union.
