Indeed, 644 is octal, so to convert it to decimal we do:
4 + (4*8) + (6*8*8) = 420
The number you get back is completely correct. Converting in the other
direction is left as an exercise for the reader :-)

That's what I thought as well, but actually I get '420' back?!

I am reading the file permissions from a file like this
NSDictionary localAttributes =
NSPathUtilities.fileAttributes(file.getPath(), true);
int localPermissions =
((Integer)localAttributes.objectForKey(NSPathUtilities.FilePosixPermi
ssions)).intValue();
What I am wondering how I can convert this integer to a number I am
used to, like 644 representing rw-r--r--
Thanks for the introduction to 'posix permissions for dummies'
AFAIK, this is your int. It's just that "644" is in fact 0644 which
is an octal number.
