Modify date - Question #116

Closed abillauer closed 4 months ago

abillauer commented 5 months ago

Hi,

When I open comic files with simple comic it often changes the file modify date of the comic file. Is there a way to ensure simple comic doesn't change the files it is reading?

Thanks!

I tested 5 different CBZ and CBR files and couldn't dupe this behavior with v1.9.8 Can you provide more details, examples, and version numbers to help us track this down?

Hi, I am opening a cbz on a SMB share on a diskstation NAS. The share has read/write permissions.

You can see the before here:

What is interesting is that the MD5 sum of the file stays the same. I am not sure if this is a real issue or a mac/UI issue or if I am just reading this wrong.

That the MD5 sum of the file stays the same is a clue. If it were on a mac native file system, I'd ask you to do, on the command-line, an ls -l@ on that file, to see what kind of metadata is being stored for it. And, Command-click on the header column of the table to get a list of possible columns and enable the Date Last Opened column. It is possible that SMB accessed from macOS gets it wrong, and modifies last modified whenever it modifies the last opened value.

It seems to be exactly that. 

 ls -l@ The\ Peacemaker\ \#001\ \(1967\).cbz 
-rwx------@ 1 XXX  staff  51213225 Apr 28 13:37 The Peacemaker #001 (1967).cbz
    com.apple.lastuseddate#PS         16 
    com.apple.quarantine          30

When I copy the file locally and add all the columns the date last open updates but not the date modified.

Closing as this is outside of Simple Comic's control/correct behavior.
