integer llGetInventoryPermMask(string item, integer mask)
Returns the requested
permission mask for the
inventory item defined by
item. If
item is not in the
object's inventory,
llGetInventoryPermMask returns 0 and causes the object to
say "No item named '<item>'", where "<item>" is
item. This can be used to quickly determine whether or not an inventory item exists within the object, though it does have the side effect of spamming
chat.
Base permissions are the permissions the object has when it was given to the current
owner. In theory, no other mask can have more permissions than the base. If they do then this is a
bug in permissions and should be reported.
| Mask | Value | Description |
| MASK_BASE | 0 | Get the object's base permissions |
| MASK_OWNER | 1 | Get the permissions the current owner has. |
| MASK_GROUP | 2 | Get the permissions the object's active group has. |
| MASK_EVERYONE | 3 | Get the permissions everyone has on the object. |
| MASK_NEXT | 4 | Get the permissions the next owner has. |
These are not bit flags. They cannot be OR'ed.
| Permissions | Value (hex) | Value (integer) | Description |
| PERM_ALL | 0x7FFFFFFF | 2147483647 | Move/Modify/Copy/Transfer permissions |
| PERM_COPY | 0x00008000 | 32768 | Copy permission |
| PERM_MODIFY | 0x00004000 | 16384 | Modify permission |
| PERM_MOVE | 0x00080000 | 524288 | Move permission |
| PERM_TRANSFER | 0x00002000 | 8192 | Transfer permission |
Do note that ((PERM_COPY | PERM_MODIFY | PERM_MOVE | PERM_TRANSFER) is not the same as PERM_ALL). This is because there may (read as: will) be more permissions in the future.
Compare with
llGetObjectPermMask.
Q: How do I set perm masks?
A: As of SL 1.6.1, you can't. There's a function to do so, llSetInventoryPermMask, but it hasn't been completed for security reasons. At some point, it will probably be completed, but there has been no word on when that might happen.
