New file - creation time information

[mircopizzichini]

Hi

In MFS, is there a way to set file creation time? If I write a file on SD card, from PC I see only last modification time, but I cannot set creation time.

Does MFS support this further time information, or MFS file handle keeps only last modification time/date?

Thank you

MFS doesn’t naturally support creation time and creation date attributes.

It is optional part of FAT implementation and in case of MFS it is not directly implemented. For full FAT specification please search fatgen103.pdf file.

Theoretically you can edit mfs_dir_entry structure in mfs.h file or directly edit RESERVED field in this structure.

DIR_CrtTime will be in position RESERVED[2] and RESERVED[3]

DIR_CrtDate will be in position RESERVED[4] and RESERVED[5]

Note: This presents customer modification of MQX code.

Have a great day,
RadekS
