There
might be a requirement where we want to strip permissions
programmatically when uploading a document If we have kept versioning
enabled then there will be multiple versions of the item created also if
check in and check out are enabled a version of the document item will
be created every time we strip permissions. Also note the ItemUpdated Event for a document library fires more than once
The
reason being a document version is created when it is uploaded and when
editing the properties the document is by default checked out and then
checked in
So another version of the document is created
Now
when we want to strip the item permissions and there are multiple item
permissions to be assigned then what we can do is that we will have to
put the following line of code inside our method
this.EventFiringEnabled=false;
this.EventFiringEnabled=true;
At the end of your method just before you close the method
So your code looks something like this
public class SomeClass:SPItemEventReceiver
{
public override void ItemAdded(SPItemEventProperties properties)
{
this.EventFiringEnabled=false;
SPListItem item=properties.ListItem;
//Your code goes here
item.Update();
this.EventFiringEnabled=true;
}
}
