AccessControlList Class

Article
07/02/2014

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.
