Fields
| Name | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| NoAccess | 0 | No access to a file or directory. NoAccess represents no valid FileIOPermissionAccess values and causes an ArgumentException when used as the parameter for GetPathList(FileIOPermissionAccess), which expects a single value. |
| Read | 1 | Access to read from a file or directory. |
| Write | 2 | Access to write to or delete a file or directory. Write access includes deleting and overwriting files or directories. |
| Append | 4 | Access to append material to a file or directory. |
| PathDiscovery | 8 | Access to the information in the path itself. This helps protect sensitive information in the path, such as user names, as well as information about the directory structure revealed in the path. This value does not grant access to files or folders represented by the path. For performance reasons, |
| AllAccess | 15 | Append, Read, Write, and PathDiscovery access to a file or directory. AllAccess represents multiple FileIOPermissionAccess values and causes an ArgumentException when used as the |
Remarks
Caution
Code Access Security (CAS) has been deprecated across all versions of .NET Framework and .NET. Recent versions of .NET do not honor CAS annotations and produce errors if CAS-related APIs are used. Developers should seek alternative means of accomplishing security tasks.
This enumeration is used with the FileIOPermission class.
Note
Giving Write access to an assembly is similar to granting it Full Trust. If an application should not write to the file system, it should not have Write access.
Although NoAccess and AllAccess are members of FileIOPermissionAccess, they are not valid for use as the parameter for GetPathList because they describe no file access types or all file access types, respectively. FileIOPermission.GetPathList expects a single file access type.
