Hi,
Let me try one more time to spell this as clearly as possible: there is no way to create a "file" with the SDK Lite, leave alone set permissions.

The only class I can use with the SDK Lite is: https://www.mifare.net/files/lite_javadoc/com/nxp/nfcliblite/cards/DESFireEV1.html
This class only contain one method to create applications, not files: personalize(MASTER_KEY,appID,APP_KEY).

What you are referring to is this class: https://www.mifare.net/files/lite_javadoc/com/nxp/nfclib/desfire/DESFireEV1.html
which is present in the SDK Lite but is only accessible by first instantiating this other class which is NOT available in the Lite version: https://www.mifare.net/files/advanced_javadoc/com/nxp/nfclib/NxpNfcLib.html

So creating file and setting permissions can only be done by using the Advanced SDK, in fact all the examples in the other posts explicitly say that they use the Advanced version.

So the answer I am looking for is: you can't use our DESFire cards until the new SDK is out, and your project is screwed.

I will just have to wait until the new SDK is out and hope that the project has not been shut down in the meanwhile. I can't understand that you cannot guarantee development continuity to your users until the new SDK is out and available.

Thanks anyway for the help.
