Thread: modification date

I am learning JAVA programming language. I am doing one live project where I use java as front end and SQL as back end. In my project I have to show last modification date of file. I tried different methods. But not any of them worked out. Can anybody tell me how to get a file last modification date in java? Any suggestion.
Thank you.

It is very simple procedure to get a file last modification date in java. You have to generate an instance of file object to do this. I have written following program for you. In that program I have use one variable named "lastModified file" to save last modified date of that file.

import java.io.File;
import java.util.Date;
public class FLModificationDate
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
File file1 = new File("testfile.java");
Long lastModifiedfile = file.lastModified();
Date dat = new Date(lastModifiedfile);
System.out.println(dat);
}
}
