#2154: [iostreams] File times on POSIX systems
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
Reporter: schoepflin | Owner: turkanis
Type: Bugs | Status: new
Milestone: Boost 1.36.0 | Component: iostreams
Version: Boost Development Trunk | Severity: Regression
Keywords: |
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
Currently iostreams has a number of failures on POSIX systems because of
the use of the non-existent function futimes().
futimes() conforms to 4.2BSD and is unknown to POSIX, which only has
utime() to set file access and modification times. Unfortunately utime()
works in term of path names and not file descriptors, and I'm not aware of
any suitable replacement, so perhaps the interface for the functionality
in question needs to be changed.
