seteuid

Name

seteuid() - set the effective user id (euid) of an object

Synopsis

int seteuid( string str );

Description

Set effective uid to `str'. valid_seteuid() in the master object controls which values the euid of an object may be set to.

When this value is 0, then the current objects uid can be changed by export_uid(), and only then.

But, when the value is 0, no objects can be loaded or cloned by an object.
