Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-886:
----------------------------------------
Just some food for thought.
The methods in RepositoryDocument that were meant to handle this kind of thing
are the following:
{code}
/** Clear all directory acls. */
public void clearDirectoryACLs()
{
directorySecurity.clear();
}
/** Get a count of directory security entries. */
public int countDirectoryACLs()
{
return directorySecurity.size();
}
/** Add directory security entry */
public void addDirectoryACLs(String[] allowACL, String[] denyACL)
{
Security s = new Security();
s.setACL(allowACL);
s.setDenyACL(denyACL);
directorySecurity.add(s);
}
/** Get directory security access acl */
public String[] getDirectoryACL(int index)
{
Security s = directorySecurity.get(index);
return s.getACL();
}
/** Get directory security deny acl */
public String[] getDirectoryDenyACL(int index)
{
Security s = directorySecurity.get(index);
return s.getDenyACL();
}
{code}
Instead of adding "parent" methods in addition to these, I would suggest adding
either zero or one "directory" set of acls. Then, maybe modify the Solr plugin
to be able to work with up to N such directory acls (configurable). That would
be a lot closer to the original idea.
Also, you WILL need to support this for Solr 3.x plugin and ElasticSearch.
Thanks!

> Windows server checks the access permission of a share folder and the
> security permission of a file document when we access a file via network.
> As far as I look into that, Windows does not take subfolder's security
> permissions into account.
> There is a case that someone who is admin wants to configure 'Everyone' for
> 'share folders' and configure each access permissions for 'sub folders'.
> E.g. \\ShareFolder\Admin --> Admin folder for administrative user,
> \\ShareFolder\Sales --> Sales folder for sales user.
> The users put files in 'sub folders', then the permission of these files will
> be inherited from the permission of 'sub folders'.
> I'd like to support access permissions for 'sub folders' in jcifs/solr
> connector.
> In general, we expect file's permission to be inherited from parent folder.
> So I want to manage parent's security by providing new [allow|deny]_token
> fields.
