Privilege Info: Managing Privilege Information

This tutorial demonstrates how you can display privilege information, such as the name and description of a given privilege.

Warm-up

Become familiar with the Privilege Info API basics by learning about:

Getting Privilege Information

To get privilege display information:

  1. To use the functions and data types of the Privilege Info API (in mobile and wearable applications), include the <privilege_information.h> header file in your application:

    #include <privilege_information.h>
  2. To get various privilege information:
    1. Get the privilege display name using the privilege_info_get_display_name() function: 
      char* displayName = NULL;
int retVal = privilege_info_get_display_name("2.2", "http://tizen.org/privilege/application.launch", &displayName);

      The function takes the following parameters:

      • API version
      • Privilege name
      • Privilege display name
    2. Get the privilege display name by package type using the privilege_info_get_display_name_by_pkgtype() function: 
      char* displayName = NULL;
int retVal = privilege_info_get_display_name_by_pkgtype("PRVINFO_PACKAGE_TYPE_WEB", "2.2", "http://tizen.org/privilege/application.launch", &displayName);

      The function takes the following parameters:

      • Package type
      • API version
      • Privilege name
      • Privilege display name
    3. Get the privilege description using the privilege_info_get_description() function: 
      char* description = NULL;
int retVal = privilege_info_get_description("2.2", "http://tizen.org/privilege/application.launch", &description);

      The function takes the following parameters:

      • API version
      • Privilege name
      • Description of the privilege
    4. Get the privilege description by package type using the privilege_info_get_description_by_pkgtype() function: 
      char* description = NULL;
int retVal = privilege_info_get_description_by_pkgtype("PRVINFO_PACKAGE_TYPE_WEB", "2.2", "http://tizen.org/privilege/application.launch", &description);

      The function takes the following parameters:

      • Package type
      • API version
      • Privilege name
      • Description of the privilege

    All functions above return the defined privilege_info_error_e enum value that indicates the result of executing the function and provides the privilege description by assigning the matching value to the third parameter.
