How to Use the SAS Java Metadata Authorization Interface

• Example 1: Obtaining the MdAuthorizationUtil Interface
• Example 2: Getting the Identity List for permissions set on an object
• Example 3: Getting the MdPermissionInfo List for a single identity
• Example 4: Getting the MdAuthorizationInfo List for multiple identities
• Example 5: Setting the MdPermissionInfo List for a single identity
• Example 6: Setting the MdAuthorizationInfo List for multiple identities

Example 1: Obtaining the MdAuthorizationUtil Interface

This is an example of how to get the MdAuthorizationUtil interface for a SAS Java CMetadata object. The MdAuthorizationUtil interface provides object-level authorization management methods.

     try
     {
        CMetadata object;  // any SAS CMetadata object type will work here (your code must fill this in)
        MdAuthorizationUtil authUtil = object.getAuthorizationUtil();
     }
     catch (MdException e)
     {
        e.printStackTrace();
     }
     catch (RemoteException e)
     {
        e.printStackTrace();
     }
