PTDiffusionTopicPermission Class Reference

Introduction

Permissions protecting access-controlled operations that are evaluated for a specific topic path.

See Also

PTDiffusionGlobalPermission

Since

6.3

Deprecated:

since 6.5. Replaced by the equivalent PTDiffusionPathPermission. In previous releases, the path-scoped permissions were called "topic permissions". This was a source of confusion since some of the permissions apply to message paths or to session lock names, both of which are hierarchical but have nothing to do with topics in the topic tree. The term "topic permission" has been renamed "path permission" throughout the API. Additional methods have been added to reflect this renaming. The old methods are deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
