如何获得远程文件最后修改日期

I need to get the file modification date of a remote file.

我需要得到一个远程文件的文件修改日期。

Obviously, attributes in this example returns NULL:

显然，本例中的属性返回NULL:

- (BOOL) fileHasBeenModifiedSinceLastLaunch
{
    NSError * err = nil;
    NSDictionary * attributes = [FILEMANAGER attributesOfItemAtPath:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.wrightscs.com/some_file.txt"] error:&err];
    NSString * modified = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",[attributes objectForKey:@"NSFileModificationDate"]];
    NSString * savedmod = [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] objectForKey:@"kFeedLastModified"];

    NSLog(@"Error: %@",[err localizedDescription]);
    NSLog(@"Saved Modified Date: %@", savedmod);
    NSLog(@"Last  Modified Date: %@", modified);

    [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] setObject:modified forKey:@"kFeedLastModified"];
    [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] synchronize];

    if ( [savedmod isEqualToString:modified] )
    {
        NSLog(@"File has not been modified.");
        return NO; 
    } else 
    {
        NSLog(@"File has been modified.");
        return YES;
    }    
}

Output:

2011-08-01 01:25:51.088 WrightsCS[2858:903] Error: The file “some_file.txt” couldn’t be opened because there is no such file.
2011-08-01 01:25:51.092 WrightsCS[2858:903] Saved Modified Date: (null)
2011-08-01 01:25:51.093 WrightsCS[2858:903] Last  Modified Date: (null)
2011-08-01 01:25:51.095 WrightsCS[2858:903] Feed has not been modified.

So I was able to figure it out.

所以我能算出来。

You can use NSURLConnection and NSURLRequest to get the http headers of the file, then you can look for the key Last-Modified:

您可以使用NSURLConnection和NSURLRequest获取文件的http头，然后您可以查找最后修改的密钥:

- (void) sendRequestForLastModifiedHeaders
{
    /*  send a request for file modification date  */
    NSURLRequest *modReq = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.wrightscs.com/some_file.txt"]
                                            cachePolicy:NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringLocalCacheData timeoutInterval:60.0f];
    [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:modReq delegate:self];
}
- (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveResponse:(NSURLResponse *)response 
{
    /*  convert response into an NSHTTPURLResponse, 
        call the allHeaderFields property, then get the
        Last-Modified key.
     */
    NSString * last_modified = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",
                                                      [[(NSHTTPURLResponse *)response allHeaderFields] objectForKey:@"Last-Modified"]

    NSLog(@"Last-Modified: %@", last_modified );
}
