EventWaitHandleSecurity.AddAccessRule(EventWaitHandleAccessRule) Method
Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Searches for a matching access control rule with which the new rule can be merged. If none are found, adds the new rule.
public:
void AddAccessRule(System::Security::AccessControl::EventWaitHandleAccessRule ^ rule);
public void AddAccessRule (System.Security.AccessControl.EventWaitHandleAccessRule rule);
override this.AddAccessRule : System.Security.AccessControl.EventWaitHandleAccessRule -> unit
Public Sub AddAccessRule (rule As EventWaitHandleAccessRule)
Parameters
The access control rule to add.
Exceptions
rule
is null
.
Examples
The following code example demonstrates the separation between Allow rules and Deny rules, and shows the combination of rights in compatible rules. The example creates an EventWaitHandleSecurity object, adds rules that allow and deny various rights for the current user, and displays the resulting pair of rules. The example then allows new rights for the current user and displays the result, showing that the new rights are merged with the existing Allow rule.
Note
This example does not attach the security object to a EventWaitHandle object. Examples that attach security objects can be found in EventWaitHandle.GetAccessControl and EventWaitHandle.SetAccessControl.

Remarks
The AddAccessRule method searches for rules with the same user or group and the same AccessControlType as rule
. If none are found, rule
is added. If a matching rule is found, the rights in rule
are merged with the existing rule.
