I believe this will always return false, since the strings are not the same . Consider using something like

if (startsWithIgnoreCase(resourceName, hpccInternalScope.c_str()))

Will fix. Now I'm wondering about my test harness....

Same comment as above, note how LDAPSecurityManager does it by extracting the name from the filescope

    StringBuffer userName;
    for (const char * p = &filescope[m_hpccInternalScope.length()]; *p && *p != ':'; p++)//extract scope username
        userName.append(*p);
    if(strieq(userName.str(), user.getName()))
        return SecAccess_Full;
    PROGLOG("Access denied to scope %s for user %s", filescope, user.getName());
    return SecAccess_None;

which begs the question, how did it work (or did it?) before ? unless the resourceName string always terminates after the username??

The resource name did, in fact, terminate immediately after the username. IIRC from testing the original code, I never saw any "deeper" file scope passed in here. That said, I will revisit and retest once I debug my test setup.

I need to find whatever drugs I was on back then and make sure I never take them again.

Testing this morning showed that Russ was right and the code was wrong. It is difficult to see how it ever worked.

I've made the changes Russ suggested and have verified that big jobs that use hpccinternal scopes work.

@dcamper - a couple of comments


// Grab a copy of the name of the internal file scope
hpccInternalScope = queryDfsXmlBranchName(DXB_Internal);
if (!hpccInternalScope.empty())

minor: since queryDfsXmlBranchName cannot return empty, I think this conditional makes the code less clear (it implies that that queryDfsXmlBranchName(DXB_Internal) might return empty).

Fixed, as well as the bonehead no-op within the if() block.
