--- Comment #7 from Lionel Elie Mamane <lio...@mamane.lu> 2011-12-04 15:46:02 PST --- (In reply to comment #6) >> Which systems is that? > Well, Mac OS X is the first one that comes to mind. Ah, I had temporarily forgotten it is a Unix. Indeed, it does not support it, nor does it support eaccess: http://lists.apple.com/archives/darwin-dev/2009/Mar/msg00110.html > Interestingly, the Mac OS X manpage for plain old access() says: "CAVEAT: > Access() is a potential security hole and should never be used" ;) Well, it should never by used to authorise an action by a privileged process, as there is a race condition. The FreeBSD man page says the same, but then continues saying "but you can use it to give UI hints to the user". -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
