Question

I can get modification time in matlab by:

>> f = dir('my_filename.dat');
>> f.date

But how can I change it?

Answer 1

This is can be done using Java&Matlab:

import java.io.File java.text.SimpleDateFormat
f = File('my_filename.dat');
sdf = SimpleDateFormat('HH:mm dd/MM/yyyy');
newDate = sdf.parse('12:34 10/12/2010');
f.setLastModified(newDate.getTime);
