Revoke Method (StoredProcedure)

SQL-DMO

Syntax

object.Revoke( Privilege , GranteeNames , [ GrantGrant ] ,
[ RevokeGrantOption ] , [ AsRole ] )

Parts

object

Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.

Privilege

Long integer that specifies one or more stored procedure permissions as described in Settings.

GranteeNames

SQL-DMO multistring that lists users or roles.

GrantGrant

When TRUE, the grantee(s) specified are granted the ability to execute the REVOKE statement referencing the stored procedure. When FALSE (default), the ability to limit permission is not granted.

RevokeGrantOption

When TRUE, the ability to extend permission is revoked. When FALSE (default), no change is made to the ability to extend permission.

AsRole

String that identifies a role to which the connected user belongs as described in Remarks.

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT Revoke(
SQLDMO_PRIVILEGE_TYPE iPrivileges,
SQLDMO_LPCSTR GranteeNames,
BOOL GrantGrant = FALSE,
BOOL RevokeGrantOption = FALSE,
SQLDMO_LPCSTR AsRole = NULL);

Settings

Set Privilege by using these SQLDMO_PRIVILEGE_TYPE values. To specify more than a single permission, combine values by using an OR logical operator.

Constant	Value	Description
SQLDMOPriv_AllObjectPrivs	63	Revoke all granted or denied permissions on the referenced stored procedure.
SQLDMOPriv_Execute	16	Revoke granted or denied execute permission on the referenced stored procedure.

Remarks

When a user is a member of more than a single role, the user can have permission to grant access to a stored procedure under one role and not under another. In this case, SQL Server security mechanisms prevent execution of the Revoke method on the StoredProcedure object referencing that stored procedure. Use the AsRole argument to specify the role under which permission to execute the grant exists.

Granting permissions to database users and roles by using the Revoke method of the StoredProcedure object requires appropriate permission. The SQL Server login used for SQLServer object connection must be granted the ability to execute GRANT referencing the stored procedure, the owner of the stored procedure, or a member of a role with greater privilege.
