right. This is what I used in Samba4:
typedef [switch_type(uint16)] union {
[case(1)] security_descriptor *sd;
} xattr_NTACL_Info;
typedef [public] struct {
uint16 version;
[switch_is(version)] xattr_NTACL_Info info;
} xattr_NTACL;
which allows for easy versioning/upgrade.
Jerry, do you think the pidl stuff in Samba3 is far enough along for
you to consider using IDL/NDR for the SACL ?
Cheers, Tridge
