Example

JavaScript, JScript

function GetTimeExample()
{
 var sPath = "C:\\Temp\\TempFile.txt";

 // Creates a file
 aqFile.Create(sPath);
 
 var FileInf = aqFileSystem.GetFileInfo(sPath);

 // Delays the script execution
 Delay(2000);
 
 // Writes data to the file
 FileInf.WriteToTextFile("Hello, World!", aqFile.ctANSI);
 
 // Delays the script execution
 Delay(2000);
 
 // Reads the file's content
 FileInf.ReadWholeTextFile(aqFile.ctANSI);
 
 // Posts the file's creation time to the test log
 Log.Message( FileInf.DateCreated );
 // Posts the file's last write time to the test log
 Log.Message( FileInf.DateLastModified );
 // Posts the file's last access time to the test log
 Log.Message( FileInf.DateLastAccessed );
 
 // Deletes the file
 FileInf.Delete();
}

Python

def GetTimeExample():
  sPath = "C:\\Temp\\TempFile.txt"
  # Creates a file
  aqFile.Create(sPath)
  FileInf = aqFileSystem.GetFileInfo(sPath)
  # Delays the script execution
  Delay(2000)
  # Writes data to the file
  FileInf.WriteToTextFile("Hello, World!", aqFile.ctANSI);
  # Delays the script execution
  Delay(2000)
  # Reads the file's content
  FileInf.ReadWholeTextFile(aqFile.ctANSI)
  
  # Posts the file's creation time to the test log
  Log.Message(FileInf.DateCreated)
  # Posts the file's last write time to the test log
  Log.Message(FileInf.DateLastModified)
  # Posts the file's last access time to the test log
  Log.Message(FileInf.DateLastAccessed)
  
  # Deletes the file
  FileInf.Delete()
