LastWriteDateTime Property (FileSystemItem)

Gets or sets the modification date and time of the item.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Property LastWriteDateTime As Date

'Usage
 
Dim instance As FileSystemItem

Dim value As Date

 

instance.LastWriteDateTime = value

 

value = instance.LastWriteDateTime

public DateTime LastWriteDateTime {get; set;}

Property Value

The date and time when the item was modified.

Remarks

When changing the item's modification date through this property, the physical item is immediately modified if it exists. If it does not exist, the date is cached and will be applied whenever this item is created.

If HasLastWriteDateTime returns false, the getter returns System.DateTime.MinValue while the setter throws a FileSystemNotSupportedException.

Refresh should be called before accessing this property, or the information returned could be outdated.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
