Since there has been a recent tweak to the functionality of Sys.setFileTime() I thought it might be an opportune time to ask a question regarding the decision to set both access and modification times (i.e. settime.actime = settime.modtime = (int)ftime; ) vs provide a parameter for each.
Might it be possible to change the behavior to accept two parameters (one for active and one for modtime) but default to setting both the same (to preserve existing functionality)? If there was a compelling reason to have it set both and not allow distinct settings, that's not an issue (I'll just keep it as a local utility function in my personal pkg). thx, -Bob [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
