.NET FileSecurity documentation error
Opened this issue · 2 comments
The .NET 8 FileSecurity documentation has incorrect examples
This document recommends the use of SetAccessControl and GetAccessControl through the File class, which does not work in .NET 8
The example should be modified to use new FileInfo(fileName).SetAccessControl(fSecurity)
The reference links in the .NET 8 documentation also redirect to .NET Framework documentation, which is confusing for users.

I agree. Would you like to send a PR with a fix?

My guess it's because File.SetAccessControl and FileInfo.SetAccessControl don't exist in .NET (Core), but we provide extension methods for FileInfo:
@gewarren is it possible to customize the redirection for this API?
@adamsitnik I can fix this - thanks.
