## Detailed Description

Set of privileges used to access resource information or other parts of the system.

A privilege set is a combination of privileges (integers), MetadataFields (to check against a specified value), and privilege/MetadataField combinations.

Definition at line 16 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PrivilegeSet::__construct | ( |  | $Data = `NULL` | ) |

Class constructor, used to create a new set or reload an existing set from previously-constructed data.

Parameters

  string | $Data | Existing privilege set data, previously retrieved with PrivilegeSet::Data(). (OPTIONAL)

See also
  PrivilegeSet::Data()

Definition at line 29 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

## Member Function Documentation

PrivilegeSet::AddCondition | ( |  | $Field,
|  |  | $Value = `NULL`,
|  |  | $Operator = `"=="`
| ) |  |

Add condition to privilege set.

If the condition is already present in the set, no action is taken. The $Field argument may also be PrivilegeSet::HAVE_RESOURCE to test against whether a resource is available for the privilege set check.

Parameters

  mixed | $Field | Metadata field object or ID to test against.
  mixed | $Value | Value to test against. (Specify NULL for User fields to test against current user and for Date/Timestamp fields to test against the current date and time.)
  string | $Operator | String containing operator to used for condition. (Standard PHP operators are used.) (OPTIONAL, defaults to "==")

Returns
  bool TRUE if condition was added, otherwise FALSE.

Definition at line 238 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

PrivilegeSet::AddPrivilege | ( |  | $Privilege | ) |

Add specified privilege to set.

If specified privilege is already part of the set, no action is taken.

Parameters

  mixed | $Privilege | Privilege ID or object to add.

See also
  PrivilegeSet::RemovePrivilege()

Definition at line 148 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

References IncludesPrivilege().

PrivilegeSet::AddSet | ( | PrivilegeSet | $Set | ) |

Add subgroup of privileges/conditions to set.

Parameters

  PrivilegeSet | $Set | Subgroup to add.

Definition at line 292 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

PrivilegeSet::AllRequired | ( |  | $NewValue = `NULL` | ) |

Get/set whether all privileges/conditions in set are required (i.e.

"AND" logic), or only one privilege/condition needs to be met ("OR"). By default only one of the specified privilegs/conditions in a set is required.

Parameters

  bool | $NewValue | Specify TRUE if all privileges are required, otherwise FALSE if only one privilege required. (OPTIONAL)

Returns
  bool TRUE if all privileges required, otherwise FALSE.

Definition at line 311 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

PrivilegeSet::Data | ( |  | $NewValue = `NULL` | ) |

Get/set privilege set data, in the form of an opaque string.

This method can be used to retrieve an opaque string containing privilege set data, which can then be saved (e.g. to a database) and later used to reload a privilege set. (Use instead of serialize() to avoid future issues with internal class changes.)

Parameters

  string | $NewValue | New privilege set data. (OPTIONAL)

Returns
  string Current privilege set data (opaque value).

Definition at line 57 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

PrivilegeSet::FieldsWithUserComparisons | ( |  | $ComparisonType | ) |

List which fields in this privset are involved in UserIs or UserIsNot comparisons for this privilege set.

Parameters

  string | $ComparisonType | one of "==" or "!=".

Returns
  Array of FieldIds that have a User comparison.

Definition at line 351 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

References GetPrivilegeInfo(), and MetadataSchema\MDFTYPE_USER.

PrivilegeSet::GetPrivilegeInfo | ( |  | ) |

Get privilege information as an array, with numerical indexes except for the logic, which is contained in a element with the index "Logic".

Values are either an associative array with three elements, "FieldId", "Operator", and "Value", or a PrivilegeSet object (for subsets).

Returns
  array Array with privilege information.

Definition at line 195 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

PrivilegeSet::GetPrivilegeList | ( |  | ) |

Get list of privileges.

(Intended primarily for supporting legacy privilege operations – list contains privilege IDs only, and does not include conditions.)

Returns
  array Array of privilege IDs.

Definition at line 211 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

PrivilegeSet::IncludesPrivilege | ( |  | $Privilege | ) |

Check whether this privilege set includes the specified privilege.

Parameters

  mixed | $Privilege | Privilege ID or object to check.

Returns
  bool TRUE if privilege is included, otherwise FALSE.

Definition at line 180 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

Referenced by AddPrivilege(), and RemovePrivilege().

Here is the caller graph for this function:

PrivilegeSet::MeetsRequirements | ( | CWUser | $User,
|  |  | $Resource = `self::NO_RESOURCE`
| ) |  |

Determine if a given user meets the requirements specified by this PrivilegeSet.

Typically used to determine if a user should be allowed access to a particular piece of data.

Parameters

  object | $User | CWUser object to use in comparisons.
  object | $Resource | Resource object to used for comparison, for sets that include user conditions. (OPTIONAL)

Returns
  bool TRUE if privileges in set are greater than or equal to privileges in specified set, otherwise FALSE.

Definition at line 91 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

PrivilegeSet::PrivilegeFlagsChecked | ( |  | ) |

List which privilege flags (e.g.

PRIV_MYRESOURCEADMIN) are examined by this privset.

Returns
  Array of privilege flags checked.

Definition at line 325 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

References GetPrivilegeInfo().

PrivilegeSet::RemoveCondition | ( |  | $Field,
|  |  | $Value = `NULL`,
|  |  | $Operator = `"=="`
| ) |  |

Remove condition from privilege set.

If condition was not present in privilege set, no action is taken.

Parameters

  mixed | $Field | Metadata field object or ID to test against.
  mixed | $Value | Value to test against. (Specify NULL for User fields to test against current user.)
  string | $Operator | String containing operator to used for condition. (Standard PHP operators are used.) (OPTIONAL, defaults to "==")

Returns
  bool TRUE if condition was removed, otherwise FALSE.

Definition at line 268 of file PrivilegeSet.php.

PrivilegeSet::RemovePrivilege | ( |  | $Privilege | ) |

Remove specified privilege from set.

If specified privilege is not currently in the set, no action is taken.

Parameters

  mixed | $Privilege | Privilege ID or object to remove from set.
