java linux 文件权限,如何在Java中管理Linux文件权限？

Is there any mechanism to get and set the file/directory permissions?

For example, I want to show the permisssions of a file in a shell way:

-rwxr-xr--

Is it possible to do this using Java?

I know that there are some methods in the File class to know if the file canExecute, canRead and canWrite, but AFAIK this info is for the current user only. I need to know the whole octal number, for example 755, so I need to get it from the user, from group and from others.

I know that Java7 brings Posix operations, but how could do this using a smaller JRE?

I would like not to use a command like ls, or chmod.

If you can use external libraries, there are several:

If an entire library seems a hassle, creating a JNI wrapper that calls the lstat C function and returns the access mode takes you about 10 minutes. Here's a tutorial that creates such a wrapper for the isatty and ttyname functions.
