Permissions when creating a file

[Frank Astier]

Hi -

I’m stumped on the following problem: I’m creating a FSDataOutputStream with 
some permissions, write to it, close it, and low and behold the permissions 
don’t seem to be what I set!!

Here is the whole program and its output:

           Configuration xconf = new Configuration();
            int numDataNodes = 1;
            boolean formatNameNode = true;
            String[] racks = null;
            MiniDFSCluster xdfsCluster = new MiniDFSCluster(xconf, 
numDataNodes, formatNameNode, racks);
            FileSystem xfs = xdfsCluster.getFileSystem();

            FsPermission permissions = new FsPermission("750");
            FSDataOutputStream out = xfs.create(new Path("test-file.txt"), 
permissions, true, 1024, (short)1, 1024, null);
            out.writeUTF("hello");
            out.close();

            System.out.println("permissions= " + xfs.getFileStatus(new 
Path("test-file.txt")).getPermission());

Output:

permissions= rw-r-----
