dont know if this works but try:
return pathInfo.Access.Exists("Everyone")
-Kjetil Simensen
It didn't work.
I tried the below code. If i try to get a file in a folder where everyone has no access I get an exception. That works for a anonymous user. But as soon as I log in I dont get the exception.
I want to always display the icon if the group Everyone has no access.
//try
//{
// UnifiedFile file = HostingEnvironment.VirtualPathProvider.GetFile(path) as UnifiedFile;
// AccessLevel l = file.QueryAccess();
//}
//catch (UnauthorizedAccessException ex)
//{
// return false;
//}
Hi
Its the Directory in the filesystem that has access right.
In CMS 5 if you want to check if all users have acces to a file you can use this code
file.Parent.ACL.QueryDistinctAccess(PrincipalInfo.AnonymousPrincipal, AccessLevel.Read)
Thank you for the answer Anders I figured it out last night. It's also possible to do the below to check the the directotry directly without trying to access the file.
UnifiedDirectory dir = HostingEnvironment.VirtualPathProvider.GetDirectory(path) as UnifiedDirectory.
dir.ACL.QueryDistinctAccess(PrincipalInfo.AnonymousPrincipal,AccessLevel.REad).
I'm using a Link Collection property and have made a usercontrol that adds custom rendering of the links.
One thing I wan't to do is display a "Secure file icon" if a document resides in a folder that "Everyone" doesn't have read access to.
I tried doing this with
UnifiedPathInfo pathInfo = new UnifiedPathInfo(path);
AccessControlList acl = pathInfo.Access;
return acl.QueryDistinctAccess(AccessLevel.Read);
But it didn'w work. How can I accomplish this?
