third dc:=dm: doesn't show correct result

Post by anmac1789 »

There seems to be a bug because 2 of the date parameters give the correct result but adding the third doesn't show anything but it should show the 2nd listed file. See screenshot below

dm:!=dc: dm:!=da:

Isn't this supposed to mean to filter current results to show all files which have different date modified from date created AND different date modified from date accessed?

But when adding the third one:
dc:=da:
This is supposed to show file which has matching date created and date accessed.

So together it's supposed to be: show all files which have a different date created and date accessed from date modified and date created and date accessed should be equal. Unless there is a way to group the (dc and da) =/ dm ???

Everything will compare the time down to the 100 nanoseconds.

Maybe there's a small different between date accessed and date created?

Please check exact timestamps with:

addcolumn:column1;column2 column1:=$da:.."-"..$dc:.."=" column2:=$da:-$dc:

Does column2 show a time difference? (column1 shows the true date accessed - date created)

What does this define? column1:=$da:.."-"..$dc:.."="
How come I didn't know about this before when I made a post about finding the time difference. Also, are the values in column 1 -- 100 nanoseconds or exact seconds since ...what reference? and yes column 2 does have a time for the file inside the goodsync path.

How can 2 entries of the same file with seemingly the same date accessed and date created have a time difference? How do I display the exact full resolution of time inside the date field so its a little easier to see what the difference is? Thanks

column1 will show the formula text, eg:

133120314533221725-133120314451701725=

column2 will show the difference value, eg:

81520000

The values are in 100 nanoseconds.

The values are FILETIMEs, which are 100 nanoseconds intervals since January 1, 1601 (UTC).


How can 2 entries of the same file with seemingly the same date accessed and date created have a time difference?
Date created should be the same as date accessed when you have disabled date accessed updates.

File timestamps can be set by third party programs, such as unzip programs.

column2 will display the time difference between date created and date accessed in 100 nanoseconds.

The following formula might help:

addcolumn:column1;column2 column1:=$da:.."-"..$dc:.."=" column2:=abs($da:-$dc:)
