Below programs illustrates the use of setLastModifiedTime() function
Example 1: We will create a file named zip_file and get the zip file entry using getEntry() function and then set the LastModifiedTime of the specified ZipEntry.”file.zip” is a zip file present in f: directory. we will take a “.zip” file as ZipEntry
import java.util.zip.*;
import java.util.Enumeration;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.nio.file.attribute.*;
public class solution {
public static void main(String args[])
{
try {
ZipFile zip_file = new ZipFile( "f:\\file1.zip" );
ZipEntry entry = zip_file.getEntry( "file.zip" );
entry.setLastModifiedTime(FileTime.fromMillis( 100000 ));
FileTime input = entry.getLastModifiedTime();
System.out.println( "LastModifiedTime : " + input.toString());
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
}
}
|
Output:
LastModifiedTime : 1970-01-01T00:01:40Z
Example 2: We will create a file named zip_file and get the zip file entry using getEntry() function and then set the LastModifiedTime of the specified ZipEntry.”file.zip” is a zip file present in f: directory. We will set the value of LastModified time to null. we will take a “.cpp” file as ZipEntry
import java.util.zip.*;
import java.util.Enumeration;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.nio.file.attribute.*;
public class solution {
public static void main(String args[])
{
try {
ZipFile zip_file = new ZipFile( "f:\\file1.zip" );
ZipEntry entry = zip_file.getEntry( "file.zip" );
entry.setLastModifiedTime( null );
FileTime input = entry.getLastModifiedTime();
System.out.println( "LastModifiedTime : " + input.toString());
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
}
}

Output:
LastModifiedTime :
The Program terminated due to error as null value is set
