I'm trying to implement some custom cross-portal module sharing, where permissions are mapped to roles and then their correct ids. I think I've found a method that can do it, but there's no documentation on this method, and the generics are a bit confusing to me.

When I try to
var origPermissionInfo = permissionController.GetPermission(originPermission.PermissionID);
var permissionInfo = permissionController.RemapPermission(origPermissionInfo, destinationPortal);

I get this.

The type 'DotNetNuke.Security.Permissons.PermissionInfo' must be convertible to 'DotNetNuke.Security.Permissions.PermissionInfoBase' in order to use it as parameter 'T' in the generic method 'T DotNetNuke.Security.Permissons.PermissionController.RemapPermission(T, int)'

or
var origPermissionInfo = permissionController.GetPermission(originPermission.PermissionID);
var permissionInfo = permissionController.RemapPermission(origPermissionInfo, destinationPortal);

becomes

Argument type 'DotNetNuke.Security.Permissons.PermissionInfo' is not assignable to parameter type DotNetNuke.Security.Permissons.PermissionInfoBase'

Any help would be appreciated!
