I see the new has_changed flag in the 20050211 snapshot. But you still have to add a call to touch_ctime() within the stat() family of calls if has_changed is set, in order to comply with the required semantics; stat and lstat are not allowed to return out-of-date timestamps. -- Eric Blake -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
