Equality of attributes of two files

[Rajendra Gutupalli]

Hi Alan,

I am looking for a method in BasicFileAttributes such as 'equals() or 
compareTo' which compares basic file attributes of two files.

It would be helpful code such as below works:

BasicFileAttributes ba1 = Attributes.readBasicFileAttributes(file1,false);
BasicFileAttributes ba2 = Attributes.readBasicFileAttributes(file2,false);
if (ba1.equals(ba2)){
 S.O.P("Basic File Attributes of two files are same");
}

As of now BasicFileAttribute implementation does not seem to override 
equals method.
If the implementation has equals or compareTo methods then it is handy 
for users to compare file attributes of two files without comparing each 
attribute (like ba1.isDirectory()==ba2.isDirectory() etc.).

Thanks
Rajendra.
