Persisting Temporary Permissions (C/C++)

When to Use

If an application accesses a file by using Picker, the permission for accessing the file will be automatically invalidated after the application exits or the device restarts. To retain the permission for accessing the file, you need to persist the permission. You can use the FileShare module to persist permissions on files or folders based on their URI, activate or deactivate persistent permissions on files or folders, and check the persistent permissions.

Available APIs

For details about the APIs, see FileShare.

API	Description
OH_FileShare_PersistPermission(const FileShare_PolicyInfo policies, unsigned int policyNum, FileShare_PolicyErrorResult result, unsigned int resultNum)	Persists the permissions on files or folders.
OH_FileShare_RevokePermission(const FileShare_PolicyInfo policies, unsigned int policyNum, FileShare_PolicyErrorResult result, unsigned int resultNum)	Revokes the permissions from files or folders.
OH_FileShare_ActivatePermission(const FileShare_PolicyInfo policies, unsigned int policyNum, FileShare_PolicyErrorResult result, unsigned int resultNum)	Activates the persistent permissions on files or folders.
OH_FileShare_DeactivatePermission(const FileShare_PolicyInfo policies, unsigned int policyNum, FileShare_PolicyErrorResult result, unsigned int resultNum)	Deactivates the persistent permissions on files or folders.
OH_FileShare_CheckPersistentPermission(const FileShare_PolicyInfo policies, unsigned int policyNum, bool result, unsigned int resultNum)	Checks the persistent permissions on files or folders.
OH_FileShare_ReleasePolicyErrorResult(FileShare_PolicyErrorResult *errorResult, unsigned int resultNum)	Releases the memory allocated for FileShare_PolicyErrorResult.

Constraints

Before using the FileShare APIs, check that your device has SystemCapability.FileManagement.AppFileService.FolderAuthorization.
To call FileShare APIs, the application must have the ohos.permission.FILE_ACCESS_PERSIST permission. For details about how to request the permission, see Workflow for Using Permissions.

How to Develop

The following example describes how to use the FileShare APIs.

Adding the Dynamic Link Library

Add the following library to CMakeLists.txt.

target_link_libraries(sample PUBLIC libohfileshare.so)

Including Header Files

#include <filemanagement/fileshare/oh_file_share.h>
#include <iostream>

Create a FileShare_PolicyInfo instance, and use OH_FileShare_PersistPermission to persist the permissions on files based on their URI. The maximum value of policyNum is 500. c++ static const uint32_t POLICY_NUM = 2; char strTestPath1[] = "file://com.example.fileshare/data/storage/el2/base/files/test1.txt"; char strTestPath2[] = "file://com.example.fileshare/data/storage/el2/base/files/test2.txt"; FileShare_PolicyInfo policy[POLICY_NUM] = { {strTestPath1, static_cast<unsigned int>(strlen(strTestPath1)), FileShare_OperationMode::READ_MODE}, {strTestPath2, static_cast<unsigned int>(strlen(strTestPath2)), FileShare_OperationMode::WRITE_MODE}}; FileShare_PolicyErrorResult* result = nullptr; uint32_t resultNum = 0; auto ret = OH_FileShare_PersistPermission(policy, POLICY_NUM, &result, &resultNum); if (ret != ERR_OK) { if (ret == ERR_EPERM && result != nullptr) { for(uint32_t i = 0; i < resultNum; i++) { std::cout << "error uri: " << result[i].uri << std::endl; std::cout << "error code: " << result[i].code << std::endl; std::cout << "error message: " << result[i].message << std::endl; } } } OH_FileShare_ReleasePolicyErrorResult(result, resultNum);
Call OH_FileShare_ActivatePermission to activate the persistent permissions on files. The maximum value of policyNum is 500. c++ auto ret = OH_FileShare_ActivatePermission(policy, POLICY_NUM, &result, &resultNum); if (ret != ERR_OK) { if (ret == ERR_EPERM && result != nullptr) { for(uint32_t i = 0; i < resultNum; i++) { std::cout << "error uri: " << result[i].uri << std::endl; std::cout << "error code: " << result[i].code << std::endl; std::cout << "error message: " << result[i].message << std::endl; } } } OH_FileShare_ReleasePolicyErrorResult(result, resultNum);
Call OH_FileShare_DeactivatePermission to deactivate the persistent permissions on files. The maximum value of policyNum is 500. c++ auto ret = OH_FileShare_DeactivatePermission(policy, POLICY_NUM, &result, &resultNum); if (ret != ERR_OK) { if (ret == ERR_EPERM && result != nullptr) { for(uint32_t i = 0; i < resultNum; i++) { std::cout << "error uri: " << result[i].uri << std::endl; std::cout << "error code: " << result[i].code << std::endl; std::cout << "error message: " << result[i].message << std::endl; } } } OH_FileShare_ReleasePolicyErrorResult(result, resultNum);
Call OH_FileShare_RevokePermission to revoke the persistent permissions from files. The maximum value of policyNum is 500. c++ auto ret = OH_FileShare_RevokePermission(policy, POLICY_NUM, &result, &resultNum); if (ret != ERR_OK) { if (ret == ERR_EPERM && result != nullptr) { for(uint32_t i = 0; i < resultNum; i++) { std::cout << "error uri: " << result[i].uri << std::endl; std::cout << "error code: " << result[i].code << std::endl; std::cout << "error message: " << result[i].message << std::endl; } } } OH_FileShare_ReleasePolicyErrorResult(result, resultNum);
Call OH_FileShare_CheckPersistentPermission to check the persistent permissions on files. The maximum value of policyNum is 500. c++ bool *result = nullptr; auto ret = OH_FileShare_CheckPersistentPermission(policy, POLICY_NUM, &result, &resultNum); if (result != nullptr && resultNum > 0) { for(uint32_t i = 0; i < resultNum && resultNum <= POLICY_NUM; i++) { std::cout << "uri: " << policy[i].uri << std::endl; std::cout << "result: " << result[i] << std::endl; } } std::cout << "retCode: " << ret << std::endl; free(result);
