win32-security gem

Gem Version

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).

Usage

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

Known Issues

There appears to be an issue with 64-bit versions of JRuby. I believe it is related to this issue: jruby/jruby#1315. There is nothing I can do about it here.
