How to read timestamp

I have to read the timestamp of update time of a file. This file is kept in STAGING area of TeamSite6.5 server. I'm trying to read timestamp through and IPL file.

Can you suggest, how to go about this?

Thanks & Regards,
Nitesh

Perhaps you should show us the ipl you are using and someone may be able to suggest why it isn't working.

Read up on the File::stat module.

Read up on the File::stat module.

Or just read up on 'stat' itself (perldoc -f stat)

I'm using following to store the curent timestamp to a file...

open(TIMESTAMP, ">$iwhome/httpd/iw-bin/Distribution-Portal/dp_submit_taxonomy.timestamp");

print LOG "Before creating Timestamp\n";

print TIMESTAMP $timestr;

Okay, well you're leaving out where you've assigned $timestr to some value and you also didn't say what your output is.

We can only be as helpful as you are descriptive.
