Change it to be writable. You can use OS command from Java if you have
the user privilege to do it.

Why do you want to do this? So you can write a trojan?

Short answer:
Yes.
Long answer:
Unable to be modified.
In file systems, it tends to mean having an attribute indicating that it
cannot be modified, e.g. in order to prevent accidental changes.
However, in some cases the user can switch off this attribute.

In UNIX/LINUX there is no such attribute for files or directories.
Only "read", "write", and "execute". As others have pointed out
in c.l.j.p if the directory that contains the so called "read only"
file is writable, the file can be deleted.
e.g.
drwxrwsrwx 1 Philip None 0 Mar 8 14:06 Cookies
d means directory
r means can be read
w means can be written
x means can execute
first rwx is for owner
second rwx is for members of the group
third rwx is for others This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

My program is a MSF interface that is really only 2 File buttons with

accepts 2 file names as arguments and reads from one file, manipulates the
string and writes it to another file. Java and C syntax are very similar....

I would appreciate a response on this.
I have clients who will be placing text files information about in a
network directory for example: http://www.protegen.com/clients/
Is it possible to read these text files using either vbscript or
javascript. What I am attempting to do is to read these files and then
create charts for viewing by each client.
A direct email to me at douglas.taylor@protegen.com will help.

Hello,
I have had a lot of problems installing a DB2 v8.1 Personal Edition on

default 1.3.1, which comes with DB2. But I still have two problems,
and I think they have something in common:
1) an instance was created during the installation. I am trying to add
a new instance by using: "/opt/IBM/db2/V8.1/instance/db2icrt -d -a

Ok, we are all aware of the situation where modifying the folder
structure (adding files, folders, deleting files, etc) will result in
ASP.NET triggering a recompilation/restart of the application.
In a nutshell, I understand how this can be considered desireable by
some, but I am not one of those people.
My situation is that we have a root site (hosted @ http://www.mydomain.com)
in the root application folder '/'.
