Hi, thanks for the response. I apologize for not
supplying a test case. Here's a modification of your
example program that demonstrates what I mean:
#include <utime.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
int main()
{
struct utimbuf s;
struct utimbuf s2;
struct stat info;
s.actime = 0;
s.modtime = 1;
utime ("./x", &s);
stat("./x",&info);
printf(" utime.file access time is %ld\n",
info.st_atime); // prints "1". I would expect "0".
s.actime = 3;
s.modtime = 1;
utime ("./x", &s);
stat("./x",&info);
printf(" utime.file access time is %ld\n",
info.st_atime); // prints "3", which is both expected
and inconsistent with the one above.
}
I'm on cygwin-1.3.5 and Windows2000
Thanks,
Chad
