fileattrib
Set or get attributes of file or folder
Syntax
Description
fileattrib
lists the attribute values for
the current folder. The values are listed using this structure:
Name |
archive |
system |
hidden |
directory |
UserRead |
UserWrite |
UserExecute |
GroupRead |
GroupWrite |
GroupExecute |
OtherRead |
OtherWrite |
OtherExecute |
The first field, Name
, displays the file
or folder name. The remaining fields display a value of 0
if
the attribute is off, 1
if the attribute is on,
and NaN
if the attribute does not apply.
fileattrib
is similar to the DOS attrib
command,
or the UNIX® chmod
command.
Note
In Windows®, setting the write access attribute ('w'
)
to read-only does not necessarily prevent write access. Therefore,
the value for UserWrite
may differ from what is
expected.
