How to password protected Folder through Java

[Anurag Pathak]

Hi All,

This is Anurag Pathak.

I want a sample Java Code which will create password Protected folder.

so while accessing a folder it should ask password if valid folder should be visible else invisible.

Please help me in achieving this.

Looking forward for the reply.

Can you clearly explains what your application should do ?

What I understand from your explanations is that through your Java application :
- some folders must be visible ;
- when the user try to access one of the these visible folders, the user will required to enter password information;
- If the password information is not correct, the folder becomes invisible.

Is a password required to access a folder EACH TIME a folder is accessed ?
Has each folder a different password ?
Where are the password information stored : in your application or associated with the folders and obtained through the OS ?

Is there something else worth mentionning ?
