how can i get the file permission of a directory with java
- by user571652
i try to check the permission granted to a directory in linux, i mean i have a directory with permission 755
berty@berty-laptop:~$ ls -l / |grep directory
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2011-01-10 12:33 directory
how can i read that permission with java? I've tried using FilePermission but though i have a directory with all the permissions (777) the FilePermission class always returns an exception
java.security.AccessControlException: Access denied (java.io.FilePermission /home/directory read)
at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(AccessController.java:103)
at com.snippets.Check4DirectoryPermission.checker(Check4DirectoryPermission.java:50)
at com.snippets.Check4DirectoryPermission.main(Check4DirectoryPermission.java:70)
is there another way to do this?
