SecTaskCopyValueForEntitlement(_:_:_:)

Declaration

func SecTaskCopyValueForEntitlement(_ task: SecTask, _ entitlement: CFString, _ error: UnsafeMutablePointer<Unmanaged<CFError>?>?) -> CFTypeRef?

Parameters

• task:

  The task whose entitlement you want.

• entitlement:

  The name of the entitlement to be fetched.

• error:

  A pointer that the function uses to provide an error object with details if an error occurs. The caller becomes responsible for the object’s memory. Pass NULL to ignore the error.

Return Value

The value of the specified entitlement for the process or NULL if the entitlement value could not be retrieved. The type of the returned value depends on the entitlement specified. In Objective-C, call the CFRelease function to free this object’s memory when you are done with it.

Discussion

An empty return value may indicate an error, or it may indicate that the entitlement is simply not present. In the latter case, no error is returned.
