Overwriting Readonly Files - Access Denied

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Make the jsp files as read only.
2. Run the ant task to compress the jsp files.
3. Gets the Access Denied Error.

 [apply] java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\work\Projects\GCB\workspace\RevenueSummaryPortlet\WebContent\WEB-INF\jsp\associateList\assocAssociateList.jsp (Access is denied)
 [apply]     at java.io.FileOutputStream.open(Native Method)
 [apply]     at java.io.FileOutputStream.<init>(FileOutputStream.java:179)
 [apply]     at java.io.FileOutputStream.<init>(FileOutputStream.java:70)
 [apply]     at com.googlecode.htmlcompressor.CmdLineCompressor.main(CmdLineCompressor.java:346)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

We should be able to overwrite the files with compressed output.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
htmlcompressor-1.4.3.jar

Please provide any additional information below.

It works fine when I remove read only attribute on the files.

But that's what "read-only" means - that the file shouldn't be overwritten. It 
would be a bug if it was.

Also compressing JSP files is not the best approach. I would suggest using the 
compressor taglib instead that was made specially for compressing jsp.

We wanted to move the extra processing of compressing from the request time to 
build time. That is the reason why we are doing something like this. Do you see 
any issues with this approach please?

Well, besides losing jsp readability, no
