- ## Method Details

  - ### setRead

    void setRead(boolean read)
    Enables or disables read access to a file or directory for a certain class of users.

    Read access grants the capability to view the contents of a file, or to list the contents of a directory.

  - ### setWrite

    void setWrite(boolean write)
    Enables or disables write access to a file or directory for a certain class of users.

    Write access grants the capability to modify or remove the contents of a file, or to add or remove files to/from a directory.

  - ### setExecute

    void setExecute(boolean execute)
    Enables or disables execute access to a file or directory for a certain class of users.

    Execute access grant the capability to run a file as a program; executing a directory doesn't really make sense, it's more like a traverse permission; for example, a user must have 'execute' access to the 'bin' directory in order to execute the 'ls' or 'cd' commands.
