What's the Eclipse way of doing
the unix equivalent of "chmod +x <file>"?
From my understanding of the Eclipse file system APIs,
I believed the following code should work.
import org.eclipse.core.filesystem.EFS;
import org.eclipse.core.filesystem.IFileInfo;
import org.eclipse.core.filesystem.IFileStore;
Bundle bundle = ...; // a plugin bundle
String path = "/some-script.sh";
URL url = bundle.getEntry(path);
URI uri = URIUtil.toURI(url.getFile);
IFileStore store = EFS.getStore(uri);
IFileInfo info = store.fetchInfo();
if (!info.getAttribute(EFS.ATTRIBUTE_EXECUTABLE)) {
System.out.println(" -x => +x");
info.setAttribute(EFS.ATTRIBUTE_EXECUTABLE, true);
store.putInfo(info, EFS.SET_ATTRIBUTES, null);
} else {
System.out.println(" +x is set!");
}
When I manually do chmod -x some-script.sh;
I can see the message: -x => +x
but the file doesn't get the x flag set.
When I manually do chmod +x some-script.sh;
I can see the message: +x is set!
So, the IFileInfo.getAttribute(...) part is OK;
however, it seems that
the IFileInfo.setAttribute + IFileStore.putInfo part is not OK.
I searched for references to these methods and I haven't found
evidence of anything in Eclipse that specifically uses the file system
API to do the equivalent of "chmod +x ...".
Any suggestions for alternative workarounds known to work as expected?
