GetSecurityDescriptorSacl function (securitybaseapi.h)
The GetSecurityDescriptorSacl function retrieves a pointer to the system access control list (SACL) in a specified security descriptor.
Syntax
BOOL GetSecurityDescriptorSacl(
[in] PSECURITY_DESCRIPTOR pSecurityDescriptor,
[out] LPBOOL lpbSaclPresent,
[out] PACL *pSacl,
[out] LPBOOL lpbSaclDefaulted
);
Parameters
[in] pSecurityDescriptor
A pointer to the SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR structure that contains the SACL to which the function retrieves a pointer.
[out] lpbSaclPresent
A pointer to a flag the function sets to indicate the presence of a SACL in the specified security descriptor. If this parameter is TRUE, the security descriptor contains a SACL, and the remaining output parameters in this function receive valid values. If this parameter is FALSE, the security descriptor does not contain a SACL, and the remaining output parameters do not receive valid values.
[out] pSacl
A pointer to a pointer to an access control list (ACL). If a SACL exists, the function sets the pointer pointed to by pSacl to the address of the security descriptor's SACL. If a SACL does not exist, no value is stored.
If the function stores a NULL value in the pointer pointed to by pSacl, the security descriptor has a NULL SACL.
[out] lpbSaclDefaulted
A pointer to a flag that is set to the value of the SE_SACL_DEFAULTED flag in the SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR_CONTROL structure if a SACL exists for the security descriptor.
Return value
If the function succeeds, the function returns nonzero.
If the function fails, it returns zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
