- J C Calvarese (14/39) Mar 27 2005 I searched for "build" at Wiki4D, it gave me links to several pages.
What would be a good way to get the time/date of a file and use it in D? I have found several command in std.date, and but none of them seems to operat on a file (std.file not help either)? And would that code then be workable under Linux as well?

Not everything that could be there is included, but it served my purposes well enough. You could use it as a basis for something better. -- Derek Parnell Melbourne, Australia 26/03/2005 4:29:17 PM

At least one of them is appropriate: http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?ReferenceForTools (i.e., http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?ReferenceForTools#Build) When I searched for "build tool", I got much better results (only one false positive). Build is an apt name, but it's not the easiest to search for. (Just as D is a worthy name for the D programming language, but googling requires creativity.) It's a new tool and there's been quite a bit of buzz about it, so I'm sure Derek just assumed that you had heard of it already. -- jcc7 http://jcc_7.tripod.com/d/On Sat, 26 Mar 2005 01:05:34 +0100, AEon wrote:At first I though this should be part of dm.zip and dtm.zip, but it is not.
