Namespace:  Microsoft.SharePoint
Assembly:  Microsoft.SharePoint (in Microsoft.SharePoint.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function DoesUserHavePermissions ( _
    acl As SPReusableAcl, _
    permissionMask As SPBasePermissions, _
    web As SPWeb _
) As Boolean
'Usage
Dim instance As SPSite
Dim acl As SPReusableAcl
Dim permissionMask As SPBasePermissions
Dim web As SPWeb
Dim returnValue As Boolean

returnValue = instance.DoesUserHavePermissions(acl, _
    permissionMask, web)

public bool DoesUserHavePermissions(
    SPReusableAcl acl,
    SPBasePermissions permissionMask,
    SPWeb web
)

Parameters

• acl
  Type: Microsoft.SharePoint.SPReusableAcl

  An SPReusableAcl object that represents a reusable access control list (ACL).

• permissionMask
  Type: Microsoft.SharePoint.SPBasePermissions

  An SPBasePermissions value that specifies base permissions for the site collection.

• web
  Type: Microsoft.SharePoint.SPWeb

  An SPWeb object that represents a SharePoint Web site.

Return value

Type: System.Boolean
true if the user has permissions for the specified set of rights; otherwise, false. The permissions are checked against the reusable ACL, and the results do not depend on the specified SPWeb object. If you do not specify an SPWeb object, SharePoint Foundation uses the root Web site in the site collection. If you already initialized an SPWeb object, specifying it can improve performance because you do not need to initialize the root Web site.
