Hi, Is it possible to get the created on date/time using Java. In File class we have an API lastModified() but how to get createdon date/time. Regards, shankar.
I don't know of any OS file systems that keep the last modified and creation timestamps separately. You only see the last modified timestamp which is why the API only has lastModified(). If the file happens to be a new one, the last modified timestamp would be the creation timestamp as well. To preserve the creation timestamp, that information would have to be embedded into the document itself, similar to what MS Word does with its .doc files. But that is application specific behavior and I don't think that's something that you'll find being supported in the standard Java API anytime soon, if ever. Junilu
Hi, In windows, we can see the created,modified,accessed timestamps of any file by viewing its properties. I was mentioning that... Is it possible to get these timestamps ?? shankar.
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to
run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
