893N/A/**
893N/A * A file attribute view that supports reading or updating the owner of a file.
893N/A * This file attribute view is intended for file system implementations that
893N/A * support a file attribute that represents an identity that is the owner of
893N/A * the file. Often the owner of a file is the identity of the entity that
893N/A * created the file.

893N/A * <p> The {@link #getOwner getOwner} or {@link #setOwner setOwner} methods may
893N/A * be used to read or update the owner of the file.

3471N/A * <p> The {@link java.nio.file.Files#getAttribute getAttribute} and
3471N/A * {@link java.nio.file.Files#setAttribute setAttribute} methods may also be
1319N/A * used to read or update the owner. In that case, the owner attribute is
1319N/A * identified by the name {@code "owner"}, and the value of the attribute is
1319N/A * a {@link UserPrincipal}.
