Re: howto: read file last modified date/time.

Apologies, I should have been more specific...

I needed to get the last modified date/time in a specific format, as part of
building an xml file.
I ended up with a dirty script task that looks like this.

<script language="vb" prefix="FuncLib">
		<code>
		<![CDATA[

		<[Function]("GetFileLastModifiedDate")> _
		public shared function GetFileLastModifiedDate(filepath as
String) as String
			return new
System.IO.FileInfo(filepath).LastWriteTimeUtc.ToString("s")
		End Function

		]]>
		</code>
	</script>

Anyway...thanks for the help, problem solved.

YEs, use the file:: functions. There is one to get the create date and one
to get the modify date.

file::get-last-write-time() is what you are looking for as far as I can
tell.
