Re: Read-only dir & files within?

This sort of thing is an antipattern in our community.

Learn to use Unix permissions and permission commands for stream files in the IFS.

Only bring OS/400 commands and notions of authorities if there is a genuine use case ...

An' I tells youse peoples, there be precious few genuine use cases for that.

Subject: Re: Read-only dir & files within?

I do not find any documentation on this. However this testing may answer
that:

MD DIR('/home/ROB/JT')

Directory created.

CHGATR OBJ('/home/ROB/JT') ATR(*READONLY) VALUE(*YES)

Attributes changed for 1 objects. 0 objects not changed.

EDTF STMF('/home/ROB/JT/test.txt')

The EDTF did create the file

DSPF STMF('/home/ROB/JT/test.txt')

The DSPF showed the changes.

There is an attribute called *RSTDRNMUNL you might want to read up on.

If a directory is marked read-only, can you still create & delete files
from that directory?
