OSD DCE 1.2.1 provides ACL management facilities within libdce. The
sec_acl_mgr API is obsolete, and it is no longer necessary to write an
ACL manager. Refer to the OSF DCE documentation to determine how to use the new
dce_acl API to greatly reduce the amount of specialized ACL code that
might have to be dealt with.
Application builders may want to try building their existing applications
against DCE 1.2.1 before migrating their ACL management layer to the DCE
supported dce_acl API. DCE 1.2.1 includes a backward-compatible set of
header files that match the header files used by applications in previous DCE
releases. Replace any instance of:
#include <dce/daclmgr.h> with
#include <dce/daclmgrv0.h>
In makefiles and in application program, change all instances of:
dalmgr to daclmgrv0
These header files are provided as a transition aid only and should be used
only until application is migrated to the dce_acl API.
