I want to store the maximum amount of permissions in a bit mask.
From what I know, I should use the C# long data type and use the
bigint in sqlserver.
How would I initialize a variable of type long to represent a 64bit
mask?
I think it is something like:
0x0............ ..0
But I am unsure as to the exact number of 0's, can someone clear this
up for me (with as much detail as possible). 9 2355

long grbitMask = 0;
You can write as many zeros in your literal as you like. The number is
still zero.

When entering the digits in hexadecimal (prefix 0x), every digit
represents four bits. Therefore, you would need 16 hex digits to represent a
64-bit value. However, if it is all zeroes that you want, you don't have to
write all of them. Just writing value=0 will set to zero all the bits in
value.

I want to make an enumeration that will represent all my permission
values for each role, then I will get all the users roles and then OR
them together to get the users final permission value.
So something like:
enum Permisions : long
{
CanLogIn = 0,
CanXXXX = 0x0000000000000 001,
CanAAA = 0x0000000000000 002,
CanBBB = 0x0000000000000 004,
etc.
}
1. how many enum values can I store with a long? (which I will then
store as a bigint in sqlserver).

Do you know how many bits are in a long?
Do you know how many bits it takes to store one permission flag?
You _should_ already have the answers to both of those questions. And
from those answers, the answer to "how many enum values can I store with a
long" is trivial to answer.

long is 64 bits, or 8 bytes.
I want to be able to AND and OR each permission enum value, so there
can't be any overlap.
From what I understand that I will use 1 bit per permission right?

You can store 64 bits if you use a ulong and bigint unsigned.
You can store 63 bits if you use a long and bigint.
You don't need to worry about setting the values - just use:
[Flags]
enum Permissions : ulong
{
CanLogIn,
CanXXXX,
CanAAA,
CanBBB
}

Yes. Obviously you cannot use the same bit for two different values.

Assuming each permission is "on" or "off", yes.
Alun Harford formulated the question :

enum Permissions : ulong
{
CanLogIn,
CanXXXX,
CanAAA,
CanBBB

No, that would still use underlying values of 0, 1, 2, 3 instead of 1,
2, 4, 8
Hans Kesting
You can do something like this
public class Permissions
{
ulong val = 0;
public enum Attr
{
CanLogIn,
CanXXXX,
CanAAA,
CanBBB
}
public Permissions (params Attr[] attr)
{
val = 0;
foreach (Attr a in attr)
val |= ( 1U << (int) a );
}
public bool IsSet(Attr a)
{
return ((val & ( 1U << (int) a )) != 0);
}
// etc
}
and then
Permissions p = new Permissions(Per missions.Attr.C anAAA,
Permissions.Att r.CanBBB);
bool b = p.IsSet(Permiss ions.Attr.CanBB B);
b = p.IsSet(Permiss ions.Attr.CanLo gIn);
Could be done better but I know C++ better than C#. Checkout [Flags] for
Attr.
