File times with C#

Published by Nathan Powell on October 31, 2005 12:34 pm under programming

I have been working on a little web widget that I don’t have done yet, but in the course of writing it I wanted to do some file time checking so as to create a sort of pseudo cache, to stop the need to bombard a webservice. Note, these are notes to myself for the future.


using System;
using System.IO;
 
public class fileTime {
 
    public static void Main( string[] args ) {
        string fileName = "/home/username/test.txt";
  string time;
  string now;
 
        if ( File.Exists( fileName )) {
    Console.WriteLine( "Yes, file exists." );
    time = File.GetLastWriteTime( fileName ).ToString();
    Console.WriteLine( "Last write time was: " + time );
    now   = DateTime.Now.ToString();
    Console.WriteLine( "Time is now: " + now );
  } else {
    Console.WriteLine( "No such file" );
  }
    } // end Main
} // end class

I wanted to throw this together so I could just test it out.
