Return Values

[C++] This method returns an HRESULT indicating whether it completed successfully. See the Error Values section for more details.

[Visual Basic] If this method completes successfully, it returns an ADO _Recordset object containing the account and permission information corresponding to the provided entity, element, and right. See the Remarks section for more details.

Error Values

[C++] This method returns S_OK (0x00000000) to indicate success and standard COM HRESULT error values to indicate failure. For more information about standard COM errors, see Standard COM Errors. Additional information may be available using the global Err object, which can be accessed using the API function GetErrorInfo. In particular, the GetDescription method of the IErrorInfo interface may return a text description of the error.

[Visual Basic] This method sets the Number property of the global Err object to S_OK (&H00000000) to indicate success and to standard COM error values to indicate failure. For more information about standard COM errors, see Standard COM Errors. Additional information may be available using the global Err object. In particular, the Description property may contain a text description of the error.

Remarks

This method will not typically be called from any Commerce Server Business Desk modules other than the Permissions module and dialog box.

The returned record set contains one record per matching account in the SDT and includes the fields: SID (security identifier), Entity, Element, Right, and Deny.

If either of the optional parameters (varElement and/or varRight), is not provided, they are treated as wildcards. In other words, records will be included in the result regardless of their element and/or right values.

[C++] The ppRSAccounts parameter contains valid data only if the method returns successfully.
