AccessControlList Class

The [AccessControlList] class is meant to associate a set of [AccessControlEntries] with a security token and its inheritance settings. It is important to note that the [AccessControlList] class does not talk to a database when its methods are called.

It provides a staging area for changes to the [AccessControlEntries] for a secured token. Once changes are made to an [AccessControlList] it can be saved to the web service by passing it into a [TeamFoundationSecurityNamespace].
