Status: Unverified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
SYMPTOM(s):
Connecting to database as specific user
User has been denied permission on individual database fields
BUFFER-COPY() method reads and writes to fields as if no security is specified.
CAUSE:
This is a known issue being investigated by Development.
FIX:
Workaround:
Use code similar to the following to build an exception-list for the buffer-copy based on existing permissions:
DEFINE VARIABLE iCount AS INTEGER NO-UNDO.
DEFINE VARIABLE cExcept AS CHARACTER NO-UNDO.
DO iCount = 1 TO BUFFER customer:NUM-FIELDS:
IF NOT BUFFER customer:buffer-field(iCount):CAN-READ THEN
cExcept = cExcept + BUFFER customer:buffer-field(iCount):NAME + ",".
END.
cExcept = RIGHT-TRIM(cExcept,",").
