extends TdContainerPermissions

TdBoardPermissions represents the permissions that different roles can have on a specified board. In threaded discussions, the permissions are role dependant and not user dependant. Each role enjoys a set of permissions on any given discussions element. This class extends from the TdPermissions class which represents generic threaded discussions permissions.

Oracle discussions elements names have been changed in the webui compared to that of sdk portion. The existing names to the new names mapping is as shown.

• Facility - Category
• Board - Forum
• Delete - Hide

  TdPermissions _tdPerms = new TdBoardPermissions(this, getBoardSettings(), tdr,_tdsession);
