touch function

String touch(
  1. String path, {
  2. bool create = false,
})

Updates the last modified time stamp of a file.

touch('fred.txt');
touch('fred.txt, create: true');

If create is true and the file doesn't exist it will be created.

If create is false and the file doesn't exist a TouchException will be thrown.

create is false by default.

As a convenience the touch function returns the path variable that was passed in.

Implementation

String touch(String path, {bool create = false}) =>
    // ignore: discarded_futures
    waitForEx(core.touch(path, create: create));
