uid and gid, OK. Timestamp, no. It is not that rare to need to find out which version of some .o is in a particular .a file, usually in connection with debugging some obscure failure. For that matter, aren't there some versions of make(1) that can check whether an archive member is up to date by examining the timestamp in the archive? _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
