SupportLastAccessTimeAttribute Property

Whether the virtual filesystem supports the LastAccessTime file attribute.

Syntax

 cbfs.getSupportLastAccessTimeAttribute([callback])
 cbfs.setSupportLastAccessTimeAttribute( supportLastAccessTimeAttribute, [callback])

Default Value

TRUE

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getSupportLastAccessTimeAttribute([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setSupportLastAccessTimeAttribute([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This property specifies whether the virtual filesystem should indicate to the system that it supports the LastAccessTime file attribute, which tracks the last time a file's contents were accessed.

When this property is enabled (default), a file's LastAccessTime attribute gets updated whenever the file is closed (unless fewer than 60 seconds have elapsed since the previous LastAccessTime). When this property is disabled, a file's LastAccessTime is still tracked and passed together with its LastWriteTime when the latter is changed, but is not updated separately when the file is closed.

Note: This property cannot be changed after a virtual drive is created, and cannot be changed within events.

This property is not available at design time.
