|  | <h2><a name="chmod">Chmod</a></h2> | 
|  | <h3>Description</h3> | 
|  | <p>Changes the permissions of a file or all files inside specified directories. Right now it has effect only under Unix. | 
|  | The permissions are also UNIX style, like the argument for the chmod command.</p> | 
|  | <p>See the section on <a href="../dirtasks.html#directorybasedtasks">directory based | 
|  | tasks</a>, on how the inclusion/exclusion of files works, and how to | 
|  | write patterns.</p> | 
|  | <p>This task holds an implicit <a href="../CoreTypes/fileset.html">FileSet</a> and | 
|  | supports all of FileSet's attributes and nested elements | 
|  | directly. More FileSets can be specified using nested | 
|  | <code><fileset></code> elements.</p> |

|  | <h3>Examples</h3> | 
|  | <blockquote> | 
|  | <p><code><chmod file="${dist}/start.sh" perm="ugo+rx"/></code></p> | 
|  | </blockquote> | 
|  | <p>makes the "start.sh" file readable and executable for anyone on a | 
|  | UNIX system.</p> | 
|  | <blockquote> | 
|  | <pre> | 
|  | <chmod dir="${dist}/bin" perm="ugo+rx" includes="**/*.sh"/> | 
|  | </pre> | 
|  | </blockquote> | 
|  | <p>makes all ".sh" files below <code>${dist}/bin</code> | 
|  | readable and executable for anyone on a UNIX system.</p> | 
|  | <blockquote> | 
|  | <pre> | 
|  | <chmod perm="g+w"> | 
|  | <fileset dir="shared/sources1"> | 
|  | <exclude name="**/trial/**"/> | 
|  | </fileset> | 
|  | <fileset refid="other.shared.sources"/> | 
|  | </chmod> | 
|  | </pre> | 
|  | </blockquote> | 
|  | <p>makes all files below <code>shared/sources1</code> (except those | 
|  | below any directory named trial) writable for members of the same | 
|  | group on a UNIX system. In addition all files belonging to a FileSet | 
|  | with <code>id</code> <code>other.shared.sources</code> get the same | 
|  | permissions.</p> |
