Setting file permissions with SetAttributes (General questions)

by KevinKay, Wednesday, February 02, 2005, 20:49 (7031 days ago)

If I only need to set file permissions, can I do this without a prior GetAttributes (and its callback) by nulling the other attributes? From the manual, I would expect this to work:

SetAttributes (handle, pRemotePath,
(__int64) -1, -1L, -1L, 0666L, NULL, NULL);

Is this sufficient or is there some other subtle gotcha?
