Roles that can only edit content as draft

I am sorry if this question has been asked before.  I could not find the answer.  As you know when you look at a module's security it has three groups, "Roles that can view this content", "Roles that can edit content", and "Roles that can only edit content as draft".  I am trying to create some modules (right now just inline code until I can get time to create a full featured module to be shared with the community).  While looking at the other modules there is "if (IsEditable)".  How can I tell if they are a edit content or a edit content as draft?

Re: Roles that can only edit content as draft

Draft Edit roles are for workflow which is currently only implemented in the Html Content feature, so if you want to implement it in a custom feature you should study the code of the Html feature. 

Hope that helps,

Joe

Re: Roles that can only edit content as draft

Thank you for your time Joe and mojoPortal.  I should have known better about looking at the existing code for how-to.  Is it possible to create our own "security" groups for the feature/module?

Re: Roles that can only edit content as draft

mojoPortal allows you to create roles and to define allowed edit roles at the page level and the feature instance level. 

Hope that helps,

Joe
