[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #53917] Incorrect warning: time stamp for 'filename' is in the future

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #53917 (project octave):

What I can interpret from this so far is that the Windows function call
GetFileInformationByHandle is returning a BY_HANDLE_FILE_INFORMATION structure
that contains a ftLastWriteTime time stamp that is in the future.

According to what I have read, this time stamp should be in UTC regardless of
the time zone setting if the file system is NTFS. But you are seeing a time
stamp that is in the future.

I can't explain or assume any further than that, maybe someone will have to
write an oct file that uses the Windows API functions directly to see what the
time stamp is after the 'touch' command completes. And whether the time stamp
continues to change as the TZ environment variable is changed.
