= Description A security library for MS Windows that allows you to open existing or create new security identifiers (SID's), as well as create access control lists (ACL's) and access control entries (ACE's).
= Synopsis require 'win32/security' include Win32
sid = Security::SID.open('some_user')
sid.valid? # => true sid.to_s # => "S-1-5-21-3733855671-1102023144-2002619019-1000" sid.length # => 28 sid.sid # => "\001\005\000\000\000\000\000\005\025\000\000\000..."
acl = Security::ACL.new mask = Security::ACL::GENERIC_READ | Security::ACL::GENERIC_WRITE
acl.add_access_allowed_ace('some_user', mask) acl.add_access_denied_ace('some_user', Security::ACL::GENERIC_EXECUTE)
acl.acl_count # => 2 acl.valid? # => true
== Future Plans None at the moment. Suggestions welcome.
