Incidentally, on that granularity discussion
yesterday. There is a
platform independent way to determine this:
experimentation. Just set
the timestamp of a file repeatedly to work out the
minimum acceptable
granularity for setLastModified() getLastModified().
Where would you suggest doing this? in
java.io.tmpdir? This might give us a reasonable
default for the execution box, but if granularity is
truly per filesystem, it kind of leaves us in a
position from which I can't see any attractive
options. I don't think we should be touching files
all over every accessible filesystem just to determine
granularity per file, though I don't really think
that's what you were proposing. Again, CHKNTFS can
tell you per local root on NT/2K/XP whether you're
dealing with an NTFS volume, but as most people
probably don't have more than a couple that of dubious
value as well...
You'd have to do a task <getfilesystemgranulary dir="test-dir" />
