- All Superinterfaces:
- AttributeView,- BasicFileAttributeView,- FileAttributeView
 A DosFileAttributeView is a BasicFileAttributeView that
 additionally supports access to the set of DOS attribute flags that are used
 to indicate if the file is read-only, hidden, a system file, or archived.
 
 Where dynamic access to file attributes is required, the attributes
 supported by this attribute view are as defined by 
 BasicFileAttributeView, and in addition, the following attributes are
 supported:
 
Name Type readonly Booleanhidden Booleansystem Booleanarchive Boolean
 The getAttribute method may
 be used to read any of these attributes, or any of the attributes defined by
 BasicFileAttributeView as if by invoking the readAttributes() method.
 
 The setAttribute method may
 be used to update the file's last modified time, last access time or create
 time attributes as defined by BasicFileAttributeView. It may also be
 used to update the DOS attributes as if by invoking the setReadOnly, setHidden, setSystem, and
 setArchive methods respectively.

Method Details- 
nameString name()Returns the name of the attribute view. Attribute views of this type have the name"dos".- Specified by:
- namein interface- AttributeView
- Specified by:
- namein interface- BasicFileAttributeView
- Returns:
- the name of the attribute view
 
- 
readAttributesDescription copied from interface:BasicFileAttributeViewReads the basic file attributes as a bulk operation.It is implementation specific if all file attributes are read as an atomic operation with respect to other file system operations. - Specified by:
- readAttributesin interface- BasicFileAttributeView
- Returns:
- the file attributes
- Throws:
- IOException- if an I/O error occurs
- SecurityException- In the case of the default provider, a security manager is installed, its- checkReadmethod is invoked to check read access to the file
 
- 
setReadOnlyUpdates the value of the read-only attribute.It is implementation specific if the attribute can be updated as an atomic operation with respect to other file system operations. An implementation may, for example, require to read the existing value of the DOS attribute in order to update this attribute. - Parameters:
- value- the new value of the attribute
- Throws:
- IOException- if an I/O error occurs
- SecurityException- In the case of the default, and a security manager is installed, its- checkWritemethod is invoked to check write access to the file
 
- 
setHiddenUpdates the value of the hidden attribute.It is implementation specific if the attribute can be updated as an atomic operation with respect to other file system operations. An implementation may, for example, require to read the existing value of the DOS attribute in order to update this attribute. - Parameters:
- value- the new value of the attribute
- Throws:
- IOException- if an I/O error occurs
- SecurityException- In the case of the default, and a security manager is installed, its- checkWritemethod is invoked to check write access to the file
 
- 
setSystemUpdates the value of the system attribute.It is implementation specific if the attribute can be updated as an atomic operation with respect to other file system operations. An implementation may, for example, require to read the existing value of the DOS attribute in order to update this attribute. - Parameters:
- value- the new value of the attribute
- Throws:
- IOException- if an I/O error occurs
- SecurityException- In the case of the default, and a security manager is installed, its- checkWritemethod is invoked to check write access to the file
 
- 
setArchiveUpdates the value of the archive attribute.It is implementation specific if the attribute can be updated as an atomic operation with respect to other file system operations. An implementation may, for example, require to read the existing value of the DOS attribute in order to update this attribute. - Parameters:
- value- the new value of the attribute
- Throws:
- IOException- if an I/O error occurs
- SecurityException- In the case of the default, and a security manager is installed, its- checkWritemethod is invoked to check write access to the file
