Definition

Gets the date and time that a file on an FTP server was last modified.

public:
 property DateTime LastModified { DateTime get(); };
public DateTime LastModified { get; }
member this.LastModified : DateTime
Public ReadOnly Property LastModified As DateTime

Property Value

A DateTime that contains the last modified date and time for a file.

Examples

The following code example displays the date and time that a file on an FTP server was last modified.

public static bool GetDateTimestampOnServer (Uri serverUri)
{
    // The serverUri should start with the ftp:// scheme.
    if (serverUri.Scheme != Uri.UriSchemeFtp)
    {
        return false;
    }

    // Get the object used to communicate with the server.
    FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create (serverUri);
    request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.GetDateTimestamp;
    FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse ();
    Console.WriteLine ("{0} {1}",serverUri,response.LastModified);

    // The output from this method will vary depending on the
    // file specified and your regional settings. It is similar to:
    // ftp://contoso.com/Data.txt 4/15/2003 10:46:02 AM
    return true;
}

Remarks

The LastModified property returns the data requested by the GetDateTimestamp method. For requests sent using any other method, LastModified returns MinValue.
