Re: ctime: creation or change time? & "cannot set time" error




The problem described in the following post to this mailing list earlier today sounds like it is caused by Cygwin's new treatment of ctime:

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-03/msg00165.html

Since the CVS in question is a cygwin version, if this really is a problem with ctime then it seems rather strange that cygwin's attempts to behave more like POSIX would break a utility which relies on that very behavior.

In any event, this isn't the postulated problem with a native windows
application.

Well, whatever it is, this "non problem" of yours makes it impossible to build Mozilla with win32.


At least on FAT32 which I use. I mention as everyone is talking only about NTFS.
