Setting page access rights programmatically

Vote:
 

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to set the access rights for a page programmatically. More specific, I want to set which groups can access the page from my code. So e.g. when an editor creates a new page she should be able to choose from available groups in a drop down list (page property) and apply that to the page she is creating/updating. Is there someone who can give me a hint on how to accomplish this? I've been testing out a few things so far but I haven't yet fully succeeded.

Cheers,

And almost directly after I had published this post I realized what I had forgot and got it to work! So now I can update the group access rights...

What was the step you forgot? Maybe others have the same problem as you did.

Yes, you are right. I simply missed calling Save() on the page ACL after I had modified it.
