1.$ OLDPRIV = F$SETPRV("OPER,NOTMPMBX")
$ SHOW SYMBOL OLDPRIV
OLDPRIV = "NOOPER,TMPMBX"
In this example, the process is authorized to change the OPER
(operator) and TMPMBX (temporary mailbox) privileges. The
F$SETPRV function enables the OPER privilege and disables the
TMPMBX privilege. In addition, the F$SETPRV function returns
the keywords NOOPER and TMPMBX, showing the state of these
privileges before they were changed.
You must place quotation marks (" ") around the list of
privilege keywords because it is a string literal.

In this example, the DCL command SHOW PROCESS/PRIVILEGE is
used to determine the current process privileges. Note that the
process has no privileges enabled.
The F$SETPRV function is then used to process the ALL keyword
and enable all privileges recording the previous state of each
privilege in the symbol NEWPRIVS. Next, F$SETPRV processes
the NOOPER keyword and disables the OPER (operator) privilege,
recording the previous state of OPER in NEWPRIVS. Note that the
OPER privilege appears in the returned string twice: first as
NOOPER and then as OPER.
Entering the command SHOW PROCESS/PRIVILEGE now shows that the
current process has all privileges enabled except OPER.
If the returned string is used as the parameter to F$SETPRV,
the process has the OPER privilege enabled. This occurs because
the OPER command was present twice in the symbol NEWPRIVS.
As a result, F$SETPRV looked at the first keyword NOOPER and
disabled the privilege. Finally, after processing several other
keywords in the NEWPRIVS string, the OPER keyword is presented,
allowing F$SETPRV to enable the OPER privilege.
If you are using the ALL or NOALL keywords to save your
current privilege environment, HP recommends that you perform
the following procedure to modify the process for a command
procedure:
$ CURRENT_PRIVS = F$SETPRV("ALL")
$ TEMP = F$SETPRV("NOOPER")
If you use this procedure, you can then specify the following
command statement at the end of your command procedure so that
the original privilege environment is restored:
$ TEMP = F$SETPRV(CURRENT_PRIVS)
3.$ SAVPRIV = F$SETPRV("NOGROUP")
$ SHOW SYMBOL SAVPRIV
SAVPRIV = "GROUP"
$ TEST = F$PRIVILEGE("GROUP")
$ SHOW SYMBOL TEST
TEST = "TRUE"
In this example, the process is not authorized to change the
GROUP privilege; however, the F$SETPRV function still returns
the current setting for the GROUP privilege.
The F$PRIVILEGE function is used to see whether the process has
GROUP privilege. The return string, TRUE, indicates that the
process has GROUP privilege, even though the F$SETPRV function
attempted to disable the privilege.
