SharePoint 2010 Beta 2 SPBasePermissions Enumeration
February 17, 2010 4 Comments
Now that I am starting to cover several articles on Custom Actions in SharePoint 2010, I need to post the updated SPBasePermissions class enumeration. Please note – that this is for the current Beta 2 release of SharePoint 2010, and may change with the RTM release of the product later this year.
As you can note however below, there are currently no changes at all to the SPBasePermissions class. I was not completely surprised with this, as this is a pretty granular list. The SharePoint 2007 SPBasePermissions Enumeration can be found here.

Hi,
I have a small problem that i am facing during some requirement
EditListItems — Edit items in lists, edit documents in document libraries, edit Web discussion comments in documents, and customize Web Part Pages in document libraries.
In this permission the words “customize Web Part Pages in document libraries” specify that this allows the users to edit only the pages that are part of a library but not a list.
But when i add some webparts to my list dispform.aspx then the siteactions is being shown to the users.
Shiva,
Can you either send me, or post here, the CustomAction element(s) that are problematic? I’d like to take a look directly.
Thanks!
Shiva,
Can you send me your element manifest for this custom action so I can have a look?
Thanks!
