User Authority Access Service
The Framework services manager provides a facility to access the current user's authority to a nominated object. For example, this service can be used to help a component decide whether to enable or disable buttons or switches. It is available only to Windows applications.
In Windows applications the current user's authority to an object is retrieved using the avCheckUserAuthority method.
