    DoCreationDateTime Property (FileSystemItem)
    In This Topic
    Gets or sets the creation date and time of the item.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Protected MustOverride Property DoCreationDateTime As Date
    'Usage
     
    Dim instance As FileSystemItem
    Dim value As Date
     
    instance.DoCreationDateTime = value
     
    value = instance.DoCreationDateTime
    protected abstract DateTime DoCreationDateTime {get; set;}

    Property Value

    The date and time when the item was created.
    Remarks

    When changing the item's creation date through this property, the physical item should be immediately modified if it exists. If it does not exist, the date should be cached and applied whenever this item is created.

    Some types of items may not expose a creation date and time; in this case, DoHasCreationDateTime should return false to prevent DoCreationDateTime from being called.

    Other types of items that do expose a creation date and time may not have the information available. In this case, System.DateTime.MinValue should be returned.

    Refresh should be called before accessing this property, or the information returned could be outdated.
    Requirements

    Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
