Method Detail

getAccessControls

public List<IPentahoAclEntry> getAccessControls()

Returns:

List of ACLs for this object only.

getEffectiveAccessControls

public List<IPentahoAclEntry> getEffectiveAccessControls()

Returns:

List containing all the AclEntry objects

resetAccessControls

public void resetAccessControls(List<IPentahoAclEntry> acls)
