IABACPolicySets.IndexOf

Syntax

IndexOf(Value: IABACPolicySet): Integer;

IndexOf(Prognoz.Platform.Interop.ABAC.IABACPolicySet): System.Int32;

Parameters

Value. Policies set value.

Description

The IndexOf method returns policies set index in attribute-based access control structure.

Comments

If the specified policies set is not found, the method returns -1.

Policies sets indexing starts with zero.

To get attribute-based access control structure element by its index, use the IABACPolicySets.Item property.

Example

To execute the example, make sure that attribute-based access control contains two policies sets.

To execute the example, add links to the ABAC, Metabase, ForeSystem (for the Fore.NET example) system assemblies.

End Sub;

After executing the example the console displays the message:

Test policies set

Index = 0

Test policies set 2

Index = 1
