setting file access rights

[Marcus]

I want to set file access rights in c++.

First time my application is run it is run by a Windows administrator.
This run creates some files that I want all users of that local
computer to be able to read/write. Some of these users are limited
Windows users with limited rights.

How can I set access rights on these files from c++ or c or win32 or
....?

I have found SetNamedSecurit yInfo method, could this help me?

Do someone have a code sample how to do this?

That is impossible, C++ has no means for that.

Ask in the newsgroup that covers your OS.
