Note that, as with filetime, the returned value is a Unix timestamp. So it can be used with the date() function;
date ("F d Y H:i:s.", filemtime($file->getATime()));
(PHP 5, PHP 7)
DirectoryIterator::getATime — Get last access time of the current DirectoryIterator item
Get the last access time of the current DirectoryIterator item.
This function has no parameters.
Returns the time the file was last accessed, as a Unix timestamp.
Example #1 A DirectoryIterator::getATime() example
Displays a list of the files in the directory of the script and their last access times.
<?php
$iterator = new DirectoryIterator(dirname(__FILE__));
foreach ($iterator as $fileinfo) {
if ($fileinfo->isFile()) {
echo $fileinfo->getFilename() . " " . $fileinfo->getATime() . "\n";
}
}
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
