I was looking for a way to figure out how long files have been in the trash, and I was hoping that stat.st_ctimespec would provide that, seeing as stat(2) says that rename(2) and link(2) will update the ctime.


However this isn't the case. Renaming files doesn't affect the ctime. Is this because Darwin doesn't implement ctime, or because HFS + doesn't implement it, or am I missing something else?

Or because moving a file on HFS+ is not considere as renaming it ? On HFS+, the file name is just an other metadata (like ctime) and is not formely part of the path.


Moving a file in HFS+ is just changing its parent, not its name.
