setftime

Syntax

#include <dos.h>

int setftime(int handle, struct ftime *ftimep);

Description

This function sets the modification time of a file. Note that since writing to a file, and closing a file opened for writing, also sets the modification time, you should only use this function on files opened for reading.

See section getftime.

Return Value

Zero on success, nonzero on failure.

Portability

not ANSI, not POSIX

Example

int q = open("data.txt", O_RDONLY);
struct ftime f;
f.ft_sec = f.ft_min = f.ft_hour = f.ft_day = f.ft_month = f.ft_year = 0;
setftime(q, &f);
close(q);
