This is the starting place for reporting bugs to the team. We will pass bug reports on to the developers after validating the reports.

You can report bugs in hardware, operating system (KERNAL or BASIC ROMs), the emulator, or the Demo library. For bugs specific to downloaded programs, use the download forum.

DOS"MD:newdir" no timestamp

Post by unartic »

Issue occurs in emulator with SD-card image and on the real hardware.
Issue does not occurs in emulator with hostfs

Tested with r46

Issue:
When you use the DOS-command MD to create a new directory, and then use DOS"$=T" to get a listing with date/times of the files and directories, alle directories created with the MD-instructions have a blank timestamp.

You set the time in MENU?
And you ran the emulator with -rtc (or whtever argument to enable the real time clock?)

Not sure if that remembers time across runs, even if you do set the NVRAM using MENU.

Using -rtc gives a correct date time on directory creation.

However, for me this still is a bug needs addressing:-)

If I don't use -rtc and create a new file ,a date/time IS added. The MD command should follow the same logic.
