function.
Name: CHARACTER
; scalar; INTENT(IN).
Mode: CHARACTER
; scalar; INTENT(IN).
Intrinsic groups: badu77
.
Description:
Changes the access mode of file Name according to the
specification Mode, which is given in the format of
chmod(1)
.
A null character (CHAR(0)
) marks the end of
the name in Name--otherwise,
trailing blanks in Name are ignored.
Currently, Name must not contain the single quote
character.
Returns 0 on success or a nonzero error code otherwise.
Note that this currently works
by actually invoking /bin/chmod
(or the chmod
found when
the library was configured) and so might fail in some circumstances and
will, anyway, be slow.
Due to the side effects performed by this intrinsic, the function form is not recommended.
