I've got a vague handle on how Code Access Security works in Sharepoint.
I have developed a custom webpart and setup a CAS policy in my Manifest
<CodeAccessSecurity>
<PolicyItem>
<PermissionSet class="NamedPermissionSet" version="1" Description="Permission set for Okana">
<IPermission class="Microsoft.SharePoint.Security.SharePointPermission, Microsoft.SharePoint.Security, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" version="1" ObjectModel="True" Impersonate="True" />

</ConnectAccess>
</IPermission>
</PermissionSet>
<Assemblies>
....
</Assemblies>
This is correctly converted into a wss_custom_wss_minimaltrust.config when it is deployed onto the Sharepoint server and mostly works.
To get the WebPart working fully, however I find that I need to modify the wss_custom_wss_minimaltrust.config by hand after deployment and set Unrestricted="true" on the permissions set
<PermissionSet class="NamedPermissionSet" version="1" Description="Permission set for MyApp" Name="mywebparts.wsp-86d8cae1-7db2-4057-8c17-dc551adb17a2-1">
to
<PermissionSet class="NamedPermissionSet" version="1" Description="Permission set for MyApp" Name="mywebparts.wsp-86d8cae1-7db2-4057-8c17-dc551adb17a2-1" Unrestricted="true">
It's all because I'm loading a User Control from the webpart. I don't believe there is a way to enable that using CAS but am willing to be proven wrong.
Is there a way to set something in the manifest so I don't need to make this fix by hand?
Thanks
