Creation date of files in NSDocumentDirectory

Question

I need to do the following: create an array with filenames and creation dates from files online compare this array with an array of filenames and creation dates from files in the NSDocumentDirectory.

How can I read the creation date from files in the NSDocumentDirectory?

Answer 1

You can use - (NSDictionary *)attributesOfItemAtPath:(NSString *)path error:(NSError **)error method from NSFileManager.

You can get the file modification date with NSFileModificationDate from the dictionary received by above method.
