File opened via UNC path trigger false "file modified&q
Posted: Wed Apr 11, 2012 3:26 pm
hello,
first of all thank you for the excellent Akelpad editor!
It is my default editor in most cases, very fast and elegant.
Question today is: I have opened a file from a UNC path
e.g.
\\machine\folder\file1.txt
when editing this file, as soon as I switch to another application and then come back to Akelpad, I get the message "the file has been modified outside, do you want to reload it?" -- but I have not modified the file. I checked the timestamps on the file both via windows explorer --> properties as well as on the host itself (which is a linux server running samba) and the timestamps have not changed.
I found that enabling the option from the Options menu --> "Save file time" seems to make this problem disappear.
but I couldn't find the reason or meaning of this option, I just want to make sure this is not a bug or that I am doing something wrong. My OS is win7 x64 by the way and Akelpad v4.7.4 with all updates applied.
thanks
