Parameters

identityReference

An System.Security.Principal.IdentityReference that identifies the user or group the rule applies to.

accessMask

A bitwise combination of System.Security.AccessControl.MutexRights values specifying the access rights to allow or deny, cast to an integer.

isInherited

Meaningless for named mutexes, because they have no hierarchy.

inheritanceFlags

Meaningless for named mutexes, because they have no hierarchy.

propagationFlags

Meaningless for named mutexes, because they have no hierarchy.

type

One of the System.Security.AccessControl.AccessControlType values specifying whether the rights are allowed or denied.

Returns

A System.Security.AccessControl.MutexAccessRule object representing the specified rights for the specified user.

Remarks

The recommended way to create access control rules is to use the constructors of the System.Security.AccessControl.MutexAccessRule class.

Note:

Although inheritance and propagation flags are meaningless for named mutexes, it is still possible to specify them. This is not recommended, because it needlessly complicates the maintenance of rules, for example by interfering with the combination of rules that would otherwise be compatible.
