NAME

sec_acl_get_error_info-Obtain fine-grained error information related to sec_acl API.

SYNOPSIS

#include <dce/daclif.h>

error_status_t sec_acl_get_error_info(
    sec_acl_handle_t prot_obj_handle);

PARAMETERS

Input

prot_obj_handle

Handle to a protected object.

RETURN VALUES

The error_status_t return value indicates the last error issued by DCE runtime support routines supporting the sec_acl API.

DESCRIPTION

The sec_acl_get_error_info() routine returns DCE runtime routine error information (as opposed to sec_acl API error status information) associated with sec_acl calls to the (server managing the) indicated protected object.

NOTES

Some implementations of the sec_acl API may map certain DCE runtime routine errors (for example, RPC runtime errors) into certain sec_acl error status values. This routine recovers those runtime support errors. It is provided for those applications that require the finer-grained information provided by the routine support error values.

The specification of the service provided by this routine is implementation-specific; it is incumbent on implementations of DCE to provide such information.

ERRORS

DCE runtime support routine errors, sec_acl_invalid_handle.
