[#BloombergLP-balb-PipeControlChannel-setPermissions] = xref:BloombergLP.adoc[BloombergLP]::xref:BloombergLP/balb.adoc[balb]::xref:BloombergLP/balb/PipeControlChannel.adoc[PipeControlChannel]::setPermissions :relfileprefix: ../../../ :mrdocs: Set the permission bit mask for the underlying named pipe to the specified `permissions` value. The behavior is undefined unless `bdls::FilePermissions::isValidBaseBits(permissions)`. This setting only takes effect on the next call to `start`; calling this method has no effect on a pipe that has already been opened. See the class‐level documentation for a description of the cross‐platform semantics. The behavior is undefined if this method is called while the background thread is running (i.e., after `start` and before `shutdown`), or if the `permissions` value is not valid. == Synopsis Declared in `<balb_pipecontrolchannel.h>` [source,cpp,subs="verbatim,replacements,macros,-callouts"] ---- void setPermissions(int permissions); ---- [.small]#Created with https://www.mrdocs.com[MrDocs]#
