APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
Error Message: N/A . Stack Trace: N/A . As per the specification, File.lastModified() should provide the time in millisecond precision. However, it does not provide millisecond precision on Unix platforms and always gave 0s in milliseconds position. The milliseconds precision is available for windows platform. For example: On Linux Timestamp : 2017-08-01 16:37:10.0 On Windows: Timestamp : 2017-08-03 13:13:41.27
Local fix
Files.getLastModifiedTime(File.toPath()).toMillis() can be used instead of File.lastModified()
Problem summary
On Unix platforms, Java uses the seconds specific data structure field of the system call to fetch the modification time.
Problem conclusion
JDK has been updated to use millisecond specific data structure field of the system call to fetch the modification time for Linux and AIX platforms. The issue is addressed in openJDK through https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8177809 . This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases: 8 SR5 FP5 (8.0.5.5) 7 R1 SR4 FP15 (7.1.4.15) 7 SR10 FP15 (7.0.10.15) . Contact your IBM Product's Service Team for these Service Refreshes and Fix Packs.
