Function GetCompilationDate

 		Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page   

Returns the compilation date of the specified executable module.

 

Unit

EModules

 

Syntax

 

Code (Delphi)

function GetCompilationDate(

const AModule: HINST;

const ALocalTime: Boolean;

out ADate: TDateTime

): Boolean;

 

Parameters

AModule [in]

A handle of any loaded module in the current process. Typical value is HInstance.

 

ALocalTime [in]

Pass True if you want to get compilation date in your current time zone; pass False if you want to get compilation date in GMT/UTC.

 

ADate [out]

The compilation date of the specified module.

 

Return value

True if function was able to obtain the compilation date. False otherwise. Function should always succeed if called for EurekaLog-enabled module. Function could fail if invalid handle is passed, if module is not EurekaLog-enabled module, and module does not have valid date in its headers.

 

Remarks

This function reads post-processing date (almost the same as compilation date) from EurekaLog's embedded data for the module. If module does not have EurekaLog embedded - then the function tries to read date from module's PE headers.

 

Note

If module does not have EurekaLog injected - then it may not always be possible to retrieve date in the correct time zone.
