AW: AW: [opencms-dev] Is there any method for check write access per group to a folder?

Hi,
if we are speaking about 5.0,

> I _think_ that only the permissions of the current group are tested.
no, all groups are checked.

Some tracing into Java: ;-)
CmsObject.accessWrite(String resource) 
calls
CmsResourceBroker.accessWrite(CmsUser currentUser, CmsProject
currentProject, String resourceName)
calls
CmsResourceBroker.accessWrite(CmsUser currentUser, CmsProject
currentProject, CmsResource resource)
Calls
CmsResourceBroker.accessGroup(CmsUser currentUser, CmsProject
currentProject, CmsResource resource, int flags)
calls
CmsResourceBroker.userInGroup(CmsUser currentUser, CmsProject
currentProject, String username, String groupname)

where all indirect groups the user is member of are checked as well.

Requirements are (in CmsResourceBroker.accessWrite()):
- current project is not Online,
- current project is accessible for current user,
- resource belongs to current project,
- resource is not locked by other user,
- if resource is locked by current user, project in which it is locked has
to be current project,
- all parent folder have to be accessible (readable, not locked by other
user, etc.).


It would be useful to post your data as zip file, exported from OpenCms, if
it is possible. Or at least describe your folder structure where you have
this problem, together with owner/group/access flags settings.

Best regards
Petr

I _think_ that only the permissions of the current group are tested. If 
a user belongs to two groups, and the currently active group does not 
have permissions to edit the file while the inactive group does, then 
the accessWrite method will return false. I'm not positive about this, 
but it should be easy to test.
