/**
 * A file attribute view that provides a view of the legacy "DOS" file attributes.
 * These attributes are supported by file systems such as the File Allocation
 * Table (FAT) format commonly used in <em>consumer devices.
 *
 * <p> A {@code DosFileAttributeView} is a {@link BasicFileAttributeView} that
 * additionally supports access to the set of DOS attribute flags that are used
 * to indicate if the file is read-only, hidden, a system file, or archived.
 *
 * <p> Where dynamic access to file attributes is required, the attributes
 * supported by this attribute view are as defined by {@code
 * BasicFileAttributeView}, and in addition, the following attributes are
 * supported:
 * <blockquote>
 * <table border="1" cellpadding="8" summary="Supported attributes">
 *   <tr>
 *     <th> Name 
 *     <th> Type 
 *   </tr>
 *   <tr>
 *     <td> readonly
