Can one set the File Permissions in Java

[rajeevwebweavers@xxxxxxxxxxx (Rajeev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx _)]

Hello

yes u can check File class there is a method setReadOnly() (1.2 only)

After invoking this method the file or directory is guaranteed not to change 
until it is either deleted or marked to allow write access. Whether or not a 
read-only file or directory may be deleted depends upon the underlying 
system.

I am creating an application that requires a Log file, that should Not be
Delete-able by the client. I can not see how to set this file as Read-Only,
or even Hidden. My Application is only required to run on Win32, so a Native
solution is not out of the question (although undesirable).
Thank you for any help provided.
Live Long & Prosper,
