Copy Folder/File wiithout modifying attributes?

问题

Is it possible to copy a file or a folder from one location to another without modifying its attribute data? For example if I have a folder on a network drive and it was created on 2/3/2007 and I want to copy it to my c: drive .. but leave the date/time stamp as 2/3/2007...is that possible?

回答1:

I'm not sure if it is possible; however you can use the methods within System.IO.File and System.IO.Directory to reset these attributes back to what they were originally.

Specifically the SetCreationTime and SetModificationTime methods will be of most value to you in this case.

I did something as shown below:

 File.SetCreationTime(tgtFile, File.GetCreationTime(srcFile));
 File.SetLastAccessTime(tgtFile, File.GetLastAccessTime(srcFile));
 File.SetLastWriteTime(tgtFile, File.GetLastWriteTime(srcFile));

When you copy a file, it will retain the modified date, however the created date will be changed. I doubt there will be an easy way to retain the created date.
