Determine if a file is accessible under unix

Hello,

 is there a way to find out if a file is executable, readable or writeable? 

If I try to run a file via  ipcBeginProcess and it is not accessible Cadence is hanging...

 

Thanks Tim

    isReadable("file")

    isWritable("file")

    isExecutable("file")

    These are all in the Skill Language Reference file.

    Oh, I was looking for something like the access-command, thus i didn't find it.

    But this will do the trick. 

    Thank you
