Getting Roles and Permissions on a List/Document Library Level in SharePoint 2007 (or WSS 3.0)

So let’s say you’re building a web part or a custom SharePoint (server/services) page and you need to know what roles are there on a particular list or even object so that you control what is being showed to the user, hide or show relevant information etc (example: http://blogs.msdn.com/modonovan/archive/2005/07/07/436394.aspx ). If you’re a seasoned SPS veteran you’ll first go for the SPRole ( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.sprole.aspx ) and SPRoleCollection ( http...

Microsoft guys (and gals) really need to work on this a bit more to make it look less like a Friday job, since some manipulations end up being a bit messy and unnecessarily complicated. using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb()) { SPList docList = web.Lists["Documents"]; //This lets you iterate through all the...

CTP for version 1.1 of the "Visual Studio extensions for Windows SharePoint Services" (VSeWSS)
