NAME
     wsreg_can_access_registry  -  determine  access  to  product
     install registry

SYNOPSIS

     #include 
     #include 

     int wsreg_can_access_registry(int access_flag);


DESCRIPTION
     The wsreg_can_access_registry() function is used  to  deter-
     mine  what access, if any, an application has to the product
     install registry.


     The access_flag argument can be one of the following:

     O_RDONLY    Inquire about read only access to the registry.


     O_RDWR      Inquire about modify (read and write) access  to
                 the registry.


RETURN VALUES
     The wsreg_can_access_registry() function returns non-zero if
     the  specified access level is permitted.  A return value of
     0 indicates the specified access level is not permitted.

EXAMPLES
     Example 1 Initialize the registry and determine if access to
     the registry is permitted.

       #include 
       #include 

       int main(int argc, char **argv)
       {
           int result;
           if (wsreg_initialize(WSREG_INIT_NORMAL, NULL)) {
               printf("conversion recommended, sufficient access denied\n");
           }

           if (wsreg_can_access_registry(O_RDONLY)) {
               printf("registry read access granted\n");
           } else {
               printf("registry read access denied\n");
           }
