GetFileTime
The GetFileTime function retrieves the date and time that a file was created, last accessed,
and last modified.
BOOL GetFileTime(
HANDLE hFile,
| // identifies the file
| LPFILETIME lpCreationTime,
| // address of creation time
| LPFILETIME lpLastAccessTime,
| // address of last access time
| LPFILETIME lpLastWriteTime
| // address of last write time
| );
|
|
Parameters
hFile
Identifies the files for which to get dates and times. The file handle must
have been created with GENERIC_READ access to the file.
lpCreationTime
Points to a FILETIME structure to receive the date and time the file was created. This parameter
can be NULL if the application does not require this information.
lpLastAccessTime
Points to a FILETIME structure to receive the date and time the file was last accessed. The last
access time includes the last time the file was written to, read from, or, in
the case of executable files, run. This parameter can be NULL if the application
does not require this information.
lpLastWriteTime
Points to a FILETIME structure to receive the date and time the file was last written to. This
parameter can be NULL if the application does not require this information.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error
information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
The FAT and New Technology file systems support the file creation, last
access, and last write time values.
Windows 95: The precision of the time for a file in a FAT file system is 2 seconds. The
time precision for files in other file systems, such as those connected through
a network depends on the file system but may also be limited by the remote
device.
