Re^2: utime for symbolic links

Your example sets the atime/mtime to current time. I need to set the atime and mtime of the link to a specific value. I updated my question to be more clear.

The documentation seems clear enough, no? atime => $time If defined, use this time (in epoch seconds) instead of current time for access time. mtime => $time If defined, use this time (in epoch seconds) instead of current time for modification time.	[reply]

But it changes the atime and mtime of the linked file, not the link itself. `map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]\|\|0,1}[\\|\|{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^ARGV,3]`	[reply] [d/l]
