Amend File Without Changing Timestamp

Hi,

Is it possible to amend a file without changing the last modified date?

If it is, how do you do it?

If it's not, is there a way to create an empty file with the same timestamp as another file?

I know you can use touch -t yyyymmddhhmm.ss filename but, I would want the file to have the exact same timestamp as another file.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

****EDIT****
Sorry, I forgot to mention. I'm trying to script using bash.

Events occur whenever a job is placed in the scheduler's queue (PENDING), begins execution (ACTIVE), terminates successfully (DONE), or ends abnormally (FAILED). A SEG module should register an event with the Globus event driver (most likely using either the Globus Callback or Globus XIO interfaces) in its activation function and then return. All events should be triggered from callbacks. When the SEG detects that it should terminate, it will deactivate the SEG module it started. The SEG module should wait for any outstanding callbacks to subside and before returning from its deactivation function to ensure that all events will be properly dispatched. After deactivation is complete, the SEG will unload the shared module and terminate. Enumeration Type Documentation enum globus_scheduler_event_generator_error_t Error types used by the SEG. Enumerator: GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_TYPE_NULL NULL Parameter. GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_TYPE_ALREADY_SET Already called a one-time function. GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_TYPE_INVALID_MODULE Shared module missing descriptor.

Parameters: format Printf-style format of the SEG notification message ... Varargs which will be interpreted as per format. Return values: GLOBUS_SUCCESS Scheduler message sent or queued. GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_NULL Null format. GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_INVALID_FORMAT Unable to determine length of formatted string. globus_result_t globus_scheduler_event_pending (time_ttimestamp, const char *jobid) Send a job pending event to the JobSchedulerMonitor implementation. Parameters: timestamp Timestamp to use for the event. If set to 0, the time which this function was called is used. jobid String indicating the scheduler-specific name of the job. Return values: GLOBUS_SUCCESS Scheduler message sent or queued. GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_NULL Null jobid. GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_INVALID_FORMAT Unable to determine length of formatted string. globus_result_t globus_scheduler_event_active (time_ttimestamp, const char *jobid) Send a job active event to the JobSchedulerMonitor implementation. Parameters: timestamp Timestamp to use for the event. If set to 0, the time which this function was called is used. jobid String indicating the scheduler-specific name of the job.

GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_INVALID_FORMAT Unable to determine length of formatted string. globus_result_t globus_scheduler_event_failed (time_ttimestamp, const char *jobid, intfailure_code) Send a job failed event to the JobSchedulerMonitor implementation.

If set to 0, the time which this function was called is used. jobid String indicating the scheduler-specific name of the job. failure_code Failure code of the process if known. Return values: GLOBUS_SUCCESS Scheduler message sent or queued. GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_NULL Null jobid. GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_INVALID_FORMAT Unable to determine length of formatted string. globus_result_t globus_scheduler_event_done (time_ttimestamp, const char *jobid, intexit_code) Send a job done event to the JobSchedulerMonitor implementation.

If set to 0, the time which this function was called is used. jobid String indicating the scheduler-specific name of the job. exit_code Exit code of the process if known. Return values: GLOBUS_SUCCESS Scheduler message sent or queued. GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_NULL Null jobid. GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_INVALID_FORMAT Unable to determine length of formatted string. globus_result_t globus_scheduler_event_generator_get_timestamp (time_t *timestamp) Get the timestamp for the earliest event an SEG module should send. Parameters: timestamp Pointer to a time_t which will be set to the timestamp passed to the SEG executable. The module should not send any events which occur prior to this timestamp. Return values: GLOBUS_SEG_ERROR_NULL Null timestamp. GLOBUS_SUCCESS Timestamp value updated. If the timestamp was not set on the SEG command-line, then the value pointed to by timestamp will be set to 0.
