Hello there!!!

Is it possible to set the permissions attribute of a nsIFile in Windows?
I can set them in my Linux box but not in a Windows XP box.

Thank you in advance!

The nsIFile implementation, nsLocalFileWin.cpp calls chmod() directly.

I am not sure that this is the wrong thing or if calling SetFileAttributes should be used instead.

In any case, I file a tracking bug.
