Re: [Wrapper-user] Permissions of generated files

[Leif M. <le...@ta...>]

Juergen
    Thanks for suggesting this.  It has been implemented for the 3.2.0 
release and is
in CVS.

    From the release notes:

* Add the ability to specify integer property values in base 8 or 16 in
  addition to base 10.  Base 8 values start with a '0' and base 16 values
  start with a '0x'.
* Make it possible to set the umask on all files created by the Wrapper
  as well as the default umask of files created by the JVM.  Added new
  wrapper.umask, wrapper.java.umask, wrapper.pidfile.umask,
  wrapper.java.pidfile.umask, wrapper.java.idfile.umask,
  wrapper.statusfile.umask, wrapper.java.statusfile.umask,
  wrapper.anchorfile.umask, and wrapper.logfile.umask properties.

    All of the detailed umask properties default to value of wrapper.umask.

Cheers,
Leif
