.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBTspi_Policy_AssignToObject\fR assigns a given object
to a certain policy. The object then uses its assigned policy to process
an authorized TPM command. When each new object is initialized, it is
assigned to the default policy, which is created when a context object
is created. When an object is assigned to a policy, a reference is added
to the list of assigned objects stored in the policy, and a reference
to the policy is stored in the object by internal object functions.

.SH "PARAMETERS"
.PP
.SS hPolicy
The \fIhPolicy\fR parameter is the handle of the policy object to be
assigned to.
.SS hObject
The \fIhObject\fR parameter is the object that will be assigned to
\fIhPolicy\fR.

.SH "RETURN CODES"
.PP
\fBTspi_Policy_AssignToObject\fR returns TSS_SUCCESS on success, otherwise
one of the following values is returned:
.TP
.SM TSS_E_INVALID_HANDLE
\fIhPolicy\fR is not a valid handle.

.TP
.SM TSS_E_INTERNAL_ERROR
An internal SW error has been detected.
