## Module

USE IFPOSIX

CALL PXFCHMOD (path,ilen,imode,ierror)

path | (Input) Character. The path to the file.
ilen | (Input) INTEGER(4). The length of the path string.
imode | (Input) INTEGER(4). The ownership mode of the file. On Windows* systems, see your Microsoft* Visual C++ Installation in the `\include` directory under `sys\stat.h` for the values of imode. On Linux* and macOS systems, use octal file-access mode.
ierror | (Output) INTEGER(4). The error status.

If successful, ierror is set to zero; otherwise, an error code.

### Note

On Linux* and macOS systems, you must have sufficient ownership permissions, such as being the owner of the file or having read/write access of the file.
