Examples

The following code example shows the use of the AddPathList(RegistryPermissionAccess, String) method.

// AddPathList adds access for the specified registry variables to the existing state of the permission.
// SetPathList sets new access for the specified registry variable names to the existing state of the permission.
// GetPathList gets paths for all registry variables with the specified RegistryPermissionAccess.

Remarks

Use this method to modify access to registry variables by adding the set of their paths to the state of the current permission object. This overload allows you to specify the access control action as will as the registry permission access.

The control parameter specifies whether the access control list (ACL) for the registry keys specified by pathList can be changed, viewed, or cannot be accessed.
