StarTeam API Permission

Question

Hello all,

I'm developing a client app with C#.NET. I need to get all the Permissions in the StarTeam which are assignable to a Project, View, or Folder.

StarTeam Cross Platform users know that there is a dialog named "Access Rights". Categories (Project, View, Folder) are listed at the left side and Permissions are listed at the right side in the dialog.

Permissions are not just listed, but grouped logically. And, some permissions become visible or invisible depending on the selected category on the left side.

This is what I want to have in my app. Listing permissions in a grouped way and making them visible or invisible according to selected category.

Is there anyone who can show me the way?

Thanks in advance.

Look at AccessRightsManager and the GetEffectiveACL method - doing it by hand is a pain.

The list of possible permissions is inside the Permission type. I don't believe there is any grouping as is shown in the dialog other than the names of the properties themselves. (ITEM_SEE_HISTORY vs. VIEW_CREATE_VIEW_LABEL)
