Re: Question about sftp and timestamp

[Tilo Eckert <tilo.eckert@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Claudio,

you can use sftp_setstat() or sftp_utimes() to set the file timestamps.
I recommend the first one as it allows you to decide which timestamps to
set. The time is passed as seconds and nanoseconds since 1970. The 64
bit fields in the sftp_attributes structure are not really used. Just
set mtime, mtime_nseconds and so on.

See: http://api.libssh.org/master/group__libssh__sftp.html

Tilo
