Example
The code below creates a file, sets a new time when this file was created, last accessed and modified and then posts the specified time values to the test log.
JavaScript, JScript
function SetTimeExample()
{
sPath = "C:\\MyFiles\\FileName.txt";
// Creates a file
aqFile.Create(sPath);
// Sets new time when the file was created, last accessed and modified
aqFile.SetCreationTime(sPath, aqDateTime.SetDateTimeElements(2010, 06, 30, 15, 24, 32));
aqFile.SetLastAccessTime(sPath, aqDateTime.SetDateTimeElements(2010, 07, 02, 10, 54, 03));
aqFile.SetLastWriteTime(sPath, aqDateTime.SetDateTimeElements(2010, 07, 10, 11, 41, 53));
// Posts specified time values to the test log
Log.Message(aqFile.GetCreationTime(sPath));
Log.Message(aqFile.GetLastAccessTime(sPath));
Log.Message(aqFile.GetLastWriteTime(sPath));
}
