CSecurityDesc::FromString
Converts a string-format security descriptor into a valid, functional security descriptor.
bool FromString(
LPCTSTR pstr
) throw(...);
Parameters
- pstr
Pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the string-format security descriptor to be converted.
Return Value
Returns true on success. Throws an exception on failure.
Remarks
The string can be created by using CSecurityDesc::ToString. Converting the security descriptor into a string makes it easier to store and transmit.
This method is only available with Windows 2000 and later because it calls ConvertStringSecurityDescriptorToSecurityDescriptor.
