["Benjamin Piwowarski (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-405?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13401439#comment-13401439 ] 

Benjamin Piwowarski commented on VFS-405:
-----------------------------------------

The patch 0001 adds basic permission support in the form of a FileProperties (more general) object that can be accessed through getFileProperties in FileObject. In the patch, there are four types of properties:
- FileProperties: the abstract base class
- AbstractPermission: the abstract base class for permission properties
- JavaPermissions: java like file permissions
- PosixPermissions: POSIX (user/group/others) permissions

The patch provides initial support for sftp and local filesystem.

> Add possibility to change file permissions through VFS, similar to executing *chmod* command on a file.
> Simple use case scenario would be to move a file to SFTP server, and then retrieve and change the permissions, e.g. exececute chmod 0644.
