<h2><a name="touch">Touch</a></h2>
|
|
<h3>Description</h3>
|
|
<p>Changes the modification time of a file and possibly creates it at
|
|
the same time. In addition to working with a single file, this Task
|
|
can also work a <a href="../CoreTypes/fileset.html">Fileset</a> (which
|
|
also includes directories).</p>
|
|
<p>For JDK 1.1 only the creation of new files with a modification time
|
|
of now works, all other cases will emit a warning.</p>
|
|
