Examples

The following example checks the file system for the specified file, creating it if necessary, and then sets and gets the last access time.

using System;
using System.IO;

class Test
{
 public static void Main()
 {
 try
 {
 string path = @"c:\Temp\MyTest.txt";

 if (!File.Exists(path))
 {
 File.Create(path);
 // Update the last access time.	
 }
 File.SetLastAccessTime(path, new DateTime(1985,5,4));

 // Get the creation time of a well-known directory.
 DateTime dt = File.GetLastAccessTime(path);
 Console.WriteLine("The last access time for this file was {0}.", dt);
 
 // Update the last access time.
 File.SetLastAccessTime(path, DateTime.Now);
 dt = File.GetLastAccessTime(path);
 Console.WriteLine("The last access time for this file was {0}.", dt);
 }
 catch (Exception e)
 {
 Console.WriteLine("The process failed: {0}", e.ToString());
 }
 }
}

 printfn $"The last access time for this file was {dt}."

 // Update the last access time.
 File.SetLastAccessTime(path, DateTime.Now)
 let dt = File.GetLastAccessTime path
 printfn $"The last access time for this file was {dt}."
with
